This movie is definitely in my Top-5 of 2007, along with "The life of Others".
It's just amazing to see how creative artists from Romania and the Balkans can be. The humor and general spirit of this movie reminds me a lot of Emir Kusturica's talent.
Too sad the director died a year ago in a car crash, 28 year old only.
Obviously, the best flicks don't come from Hollywood lately. Wanna know why ? It's because foreign movies are not ruled by profit-only oriented producers.
It's about "Art" first. Remember ?... Cinema is an art form, not just your regular supermarket product! That's why capitalism is (most often) incompatible with good movies.
With this movie, you'll get another proof confirming this theory.
