found-footage documentary assembled exclusively out of post-socialist Romanian advertisements. Drawing from the debris of Romania’s long transition period, the film speaks about love and death, the human body and its frailty, the natural and the supernatural and of course, socialism and capitalism. Bouncing between found poetry and an outdated encyclopedia, between trash art and Summa theologiae, Radu Jude’s first collaboration with philosopher Christian Ferencz-Flatz offers a hilarious and unforgiving take down of meta capitalist mythology.
Official Selection at the Locarno Film Festival 2024.
