Inspired by an idea from Soviet director Sergei Eisenstein, director Radu Jude silently flips through satirical lithographs by 19th-century French artist Honoré-Victorin Daumier. Soon, the caricatures’ original texts are read out. Finally, the caricatures are used as commentary for actual news.
Good for watching alone, talking about after, a quick watch and late nights.
Close in feeling, tone and story.
A different format. A familiar feeling.
