The list of the Cannes Film Festival‘s Palme d‘Or winners includes some of the greatest talents in recent cinema. These masters are now joined by Cristian Mungiu, a relatively unknown, young Romanian director whose second feature is the latest to be accorded this high cinematic laurel. The first in a planned series called Tales from the Golden Age, the film 4 Months, 3 Weeks And 2 Days – a Special Presentation at the 2007 Toronto International Film Festival® – tells the incredibly powerful story of a young woman who undergoes an underground abortion in small-town Romania during the dying days of Communist rule.
When the flighty Găbiţa (Laura Vasiliu) decides to terminate her pregnancy – a crime in Romania from 1966 until 1989 – her fiercely loyal university dorm-mate and best friend, Otilia (Anamaria Marinca), accompanies her to a hotel room to be helped by one Mr. Bebe (Vlad Ivanov), the only black-market practitioner they can afford. When the foul Bebe requests something far more precious than money for his services, the girls descend into a harrowing journey of the soul that is nothing short of shattering. Taking place over a single Saturday in 1987, the film holds an enormous emotional gravitas. It evolves into a profound exploration not only of sorority in harsh times but of choices and responsibility when options are few.
