Given the film’s stark minimalism, the shocking and somewhat histrionic climax threatens credibility, but Serban and Pistereanu manage to somehow pull it off. The film’s quiet and intentionally anti-climactic denouement is handled with utter brilliancy, and magically restores the viewer’s faith in the entire production.
