Film in Pictures: Cristian Mungiu’s Tales From the Golden Age

Date:

To be more precise, the Un Certain Regard’s entry of Tales From the Golden Age is a film by Cristian Mungiu and filmmakers Ioana Uricaru, Hanno Höfer, Razvan Marculescu and Constantin Popescu. I’m not sure which images (below) correspond to which film/filmmaker, but what Mungiu wants to do is provide a balance to the point of view he offered in the grim portrait 4 Months, 3 Weeks and 2 Days. Mungiu told me that the short film project that looks back at the small misfortunes common Romanian folk had under communism will told on a much lighter note. Judging by the pics below, I’m expecting a couple of hilarious sequences.
