[press conference for
Three Kilometres to the End of the World (2024) at the 2024 Cannes Film Festival] We're both parents, me and Miruna [
Miruna Berescu], and we started a discussion back in 2015 with a rape case in our country, in the countryside, where the whole society from that village turned against the girl and took sides with the rapist. We had a double perspective - both of us still have parents, we're still children of our parents and we're parents of our children, so we have this double perspective. And we thought, what if something, God forbid, would have happened to our children? What would be our reaction? What if something was about to harm her? What would be our reaction? And what would be our fight with the society?
