Synopse
Comedy, road movie, absurdist drama, political manifesto: The new film by Radu Jude pushes boundaries and is a bold statement about work, exploitation and death. Angela, an overworked production assistant, drives through Bucharest. Her task is to film a casting session for a video on the subject of safety in the workplace commissioned by a multinational company. The leading role is given to Marian, a worker paralysed on one side. He causes a scandal by revealing to the camera that his condition was caused by an accident at work due to company negligence. Then Marian is forced to reinvent his story.
