The movie tells the story of 3 friends stuck in the muds of helping secluded villagers somewhere in Romania (although this could happen anywhere).
The director and screenwriters have the grace not to force anything. The people are real, what happens is real, the dialogue is real and beautifully deliverd by the actors. For Romanians, the dialogue is especially savory as it's perfectly mirroring how we speak to one another.
The character of Kente is very well assimilated into the screenplay. We can feel that the "actor" was directed to bring himself into the story and that is both surprising and delightful.
The film is a comedy although no jokes are made. It's also a drama.
The creators shed no judgment on what happens and leave their audience with a lot of things to ponder upon.
Lovely, lovely film!
