In Radu Jude's newest work, he brutally critiques Romanian societal issues through a satirical lens, navigating themes of racism, nationalism, and property obsession. The film follows Orsolya, a former law professor reduced to evicting a homeless man from a dilapidated apartment complex bought by a German firm. This leads to stark contrasts between public housing and luxurious gated estates, with Jude's montage encapsulating the despair of contemporary life. Drawing parallels to Roberto Rossellini's "Europa '51", the film resonates with notions of despair and the search for meaning in a flawed society.
Radu Jude's latest film offers a scathing indictment of Romanian society, showcasing the disillusionment with its political climate and obsession with real estate.
The film critically examines the deep-seated issues of nationalism and racism, juxtaposing the struggle of a former professor turned bailiff with the greed of property developers.
