Do Not Expect Too Much from the End of the World
Radu Jude / RO, LU, FR, HR, 2023 / 163 min.
Director Radu Jude takes us along for an almost three-hour ride with production assistant Angela. Finally, he brings his urban road movie to a majestic halt with a shot lasting over half an hour, during which the satire reaches absurd heights.
Production assistant Angela spends some sixteen hours a day at the wheel of a van, cursing and exhausted, grappling with the gridlocked traffic of Bucharest. On the day when we join her, she’s driving all over doing 'auditions' with victims of industrial accidents. The successful applicant will get a paid gig as an extra in a film promoting safety at work.
In Eye and in national cinemas.
