Trivia
Director Adriano Valerio on his film: "It is a story about emigrating from Italy to Romania, in fact, the film tells a love story in which a boy meets a girl. Italians in order to find work and happiness travel to other countries. I was inspired by a true story that had happened to a friend of mine in Banat. The emphasis in this story is put on borders and the journeys of people from Europe who cannot find a future in their countries."

This film reminded me of the work of the Finnish director Aki Kaurismäki. At least at the very beginning. A quiet town, a calm life, a few dialogues ... Two loneliness meet and no longer want to let each other. I like it. In the second half of the film, the environment is different ... the atmosphere of the Russian village! Suddenly? So I did not expect. After all, the case happens in the vicinity of Romania. But how it looks like ... people, clothes, music, at home ... The relationship of our heroes is subjected to testing, but, I think - they will cope.
