Soldati. Una storia da Ferentari / Soldiers. Story from Ferentari
Set within Bucharest’s impoverished ghetto, Ferentari, it navigates the unexpected relationship that blossoms between a young anthropologist studying “manele” pop music named Adi and Roma ex prisoner and homeless Alberto. A film that breaks taboos and boundaries through its portrayal of love and tenderness within the harsh environment of marginalised and rarely observed Roma communities. A film director to keep an eye upon.
