Very very predictable, including the post credit scene !!!
Too much of everything
In truth, there is barely enough story here to make a film.
Actress is magnificent and exudes a hypnotic screen presence in this affecting drama.
for me it is more than a movie. it is a huge window to the colors of childhood. and this did it special. for actors and songs and the white bear. for Iași in an old age and for the flavor of circus. and, sure, for applause. it is one of the most impressive films of my childhood. for the dramatic story and for the chemistry who grows up as show. for atmosphere and for the useful lesson about the difference between appearances and deep reality. for a form of magic who is far to be easy to define because it is not exactly joy or balloons or fireworks. a delicate picture of a town and a family. or, only, one of the demonstrations of great art from Elisabeta Bostan.
A film about circus world. About the nuances of a Moldavian city. About sacrifices, lights, show and the flavors of past. A polar bear. And a family. In the circle of a gray, strange act. It is a sensitive definition of past and small values. About courage and daily fights. And the cast is collection of great actors. Gina Patrichi as lost-ed mother, Carmen Galin in the role of axis , bridge, hart and voice, Octavian Cotescu as actor, in basic form. And Iași. As the skin of feelings and pains.It is a page of my childhood. So, the words are only drops of ink. Pieces of a chimeric time machine. In the Comunist period, a movie like this was a kind of window. Today, a strange album with the as photos.
