Valentin?
Valentin? Come, wake up, dear! Do you know what time it is?
It's seven already.
One's not allowed to sleep 'round here!
You need to go to school! Wake up already!
Come on, move!
- I'm thirsty. - Come on.
- Move it already! - I'm thirsty.
Go wash your face! Wash your face! Your hands as well.
Stop shouting at me so early in the morning!
Mom, have you seen my Geography book? I can't seem to find it.
I'm not taking it, and that's that.
If the teacher says something, I'll tell him I lost it.
Found my notebooks, what do you know.
What's dad's putty knife doing here?
Omg, omg, omg!
I have plenty of books and stuff,
school's agenda for 2019-2020 is just bad.
They give us tons of books
and they make us learn them by heart.
They make us stand up 'Say the lesson!' 'I don't know it!' 'Sit down, F!'
School helped me tons, what can I say!?
It would be normal to do all the classes.
It would be, I believe so too.
If that's not the case, that's a different story. But it would be.
And I'm carrying all this luggage for what?
Many of my colleagues don't come at all or don't bring anything with them...
You shouldn't care about the others, Valentin. I told you many times.
You have to take care of yourself.
- You're right, what can I say. - Of course I am.
Put me some as well, please!
- Just a little bit. - There's nothing left.
- Please! - We're out.
- Do you want to put the laundry? - Not really.
I need to leave.
- Please, Una. - I need to leave.
You could seem hardworking.
I really need to go.
- Really, now. - I have a job.
- It's your chance! - I have a job.
If we're leaving tomorrow, in the morning...
Tomorrow, at 9, I'm going to therapy. I'll be there until 11.
- Tomorrow, again? - Yes.
- Were you there on Saturday? - I only go on Saturdays.
- I thought you went already this week. - No.
So I need to give you the money for therapy.
Yup.
- What do you want to do after? - Stay at home and do nothing.
I'm so tired, and fed up with school.
Ok, but you set your priorities straight
taking better care of yourself...
- Yup. - Really think about...
That's why I want to study something not too demanding
I don't feel like studying all day long and neglect myself.
You have to think about what you like.
The decision is yours!
We'll stand by you, but you have to know what you want.
I'll find myself a job, so that I won't need your support!
I'm not thinking of money, but whatever you might need...
I'd rather have no one holding it against me
if I don't study, or I don't know what other shit...
- The way you did it with Stefan. - But you must think about it!
It's your choice, but you have to be certain! Not change your mind afterwards.
It's my choice, and it's up to me.
I'm 18 and I'll do whatever I want with my life!
You do whatever you think is right, but it's on you!
Because wanting something is one thing, but...
Omg, please stop with this theory!
Am I not right?
Of course you are! Let's forget about it.
One, two, three, four...
One, two, one, two...
One, one, one, one...
You don't care, you leave it all to me!
Let's work on Whatsapp.
Let's not talk about it now.
When are we supposed to talk about it?
Ok, let's just run through the scene.
With no planning.
I know this festivities call for being honest and nice
but I just want to be honest.
Most things I know I didn't learn in school.
And in my senior year or the year before, already
I had no reason to come to school other than "I have to".
I don't really want to thank you,
because you didn't let me tell you that our excuses aren't all made up
and because you showed me authority doesn't make you competent.
Most of all, because respect is earned, not demanded,
and teachers who demand respect
are those who haven't understood what their mission is.
So I thank you because I will get to where you never thought I could.
Thank you, and I'm really sorry it had to be this way.
But I can't wait to go to university in Berlin
and meet honest people.
Tradition
is
my
life
and
my
death.
We thought at the end...
with the public, you mean
When Ramona starts singing and we leave the stage,
to not leave on the side of the stage
but just go among the spectators' tables, with our luggage,
even if we bump into things...
For extra impact, you know?
Una!
What I liked most
I thought it's one of the things that worked best in the play
was the thing with the Gypsy women.
It worked as motivation for the poetry moment.
I mean the Roma women.
- The women begging! - Of no specified ethnicity!
Does your mum know what you're learning here?
Does your mum know it?
- Really, Bogdan. - No, wait.
Doth your mum knoweth?
Una, I agree as a matter of principle and conceptually.
But this is not the time to be talking about it.
But I just wanted to...
I get you, I feel you, we'll do it. Trif!
What are you doing here?
Why aren't you rehearsing?
Come on, start working on it.
- But we just finished. - I don't care.
Don't I go first?
This guy is clueless!
Let him play One.
I'll be... Two.
One, Two, Three, Four.
I stole a bike.
I took it for a ride and the cops got me.
They got me in their car and the bike too.
I swore at them, they slapped me around.
Next thing I knew, a judge told me
I had stolen 800 mil from the state.
Apparently the bike was loaded with pension money.
To fit into society you need to know the basics.
To read, write, and count.
Let me introduce myself.
I am Habet, born and raised in Ferentari.
That place in the city that is full of gypsies.
But that's not how it goes in the game
gypsies are also human not all the same.
there were times when I had nothing to eat
now when I remember I still cry a bit
but I made do, stayed true learned I can break through.
So our claims are not proper demands
but solutions we consider opportune.
The protest will start at 5PM and it will last until 9PM.
There will be flash mobs and other smaller actions.
It will take place in University Square.
Thank you, have a nice evening.
He even told me ‘ciao, ciao'!
Awwh, how sweet!
Let's say something!
One, two... the minister called us!
Oh, God.
So we need the list of claims, send him the link for it,
we need a videographer, someone to go live
and maybe a photographer.
- Anything else? - No, all good.
Your brother texted me to ask where you are.
Your parents can't get a hold of you.
Oh, fuck.
I told him you're fine, working on something with me.
Hey, sorry I didn't pick up.
Dear, you said you'd call when you get there!
Sorry!
Sorry, Stefania? Stefan told me you're working...
I'm your mother and I know nothing about it!
Yeah...
No, you didn't text me.
I didn't see the text.
Fine...
I wasn't cold, mom.
Fine...
You're right.
Ok, bye.
I hate that in Romania
people wait for politicians, or others to do stuff.
"You, the youngsters, must come and do stuff!"
Anyone can change things.
If we wait for others to do things, nothing will ever change.
I can't find the word in Romanian
but I feel very pressured by my parents.
They expect so much from me
and they don't understand how much it affects me.
I can't take it anymore!
I'm fed up!
I can't take this toxic behavior anymore!
Projecting upon me all these negative feelings...
'Cause she doesn't love herself and I have to hear all of it!
Let yourself be surrounded by courage and happiness
kindness and self-confidence
and free yourself from fear
or whichever anxiety you might have.
Happy birthday, Ştefania!
We know better what we want for our future!
Make our voices heard.
We know what we want even if we're just kids!
Why should we learn for a future that might not exist?
So, Una, what are your plans?
- Now? - Yes.
Regarding what?
- Studying? - Yes.
Well, I don't want to apply.
You're not going to apply for Berlin either?
No.
- Why not? - I have no energy for it.
I want to go to Berlin, to live there for a while
maybe I'll work in a cafe or something.
I'd have time to learn the language.
Barcelona would be an option as well maybe I'll find work in a cafe.
I could maybe visit Eliza, in Bath, we could go together to London,
she has plenty of colleagues from London.
I could do a small European tour travel by car from one place to another.
If we feel like going to Italy, we could jump in the car and do it!
You know what I'm afraid of?
These friends of yours...
- Bohemian artists? - No.
We don't really have... the same revenues as your friends.
- Eliza or... - Eliza was not in the plan, anyhow.
I think they have much higher revenues
and it's easier to say..."I'm leaving!"
So you'll prepare this whole year
and you want everything to go as... 'I'll have a job'
I'm gonna do this and that... all on my own
I'll learn I don't know how many languages
Really, you need to stop for a moment and...
I'll tone down on my plans.
- And be realistic about this whole thing! - Working in a cafe isn't realistic?
I have no idea how it works, as a traveler,
if you have the right to work.
I really have no clue. But we'll find it out, ok?
- You know what I'm really afraid of? - Of what?
A year in which... you'll be totally down, depressed.
I'd be more depressed if I'd stay in Romania for college!
That would be truly depressing!
Hi!
Fine. You?
You're here already? I'll be out in a sec.
I put makeup in my eye.
Yes, I have a darker eye.
Ok, almost there. Kisses, bye.
- Breathe. - Hit me.
Hit me. Harder.
Pay attention, you're much heavier than me.
- That's what I was thinking of as well. - Be careful.
Wait, there's something written here.
Do not climb on the... fraywork!
Framework.
What?
Don't... dunno what climb means... on the hoop.
- Come down! - Come on, nothing's gonna happen to him!
OMG!
I'm like a hawk on a cliff! Everybody else around me.
Oh, my days!
Oh, upon my life!
Oh, my days, the bus is coming!
Call me, please.
I'll put it in the charger.
I'll have some of it.
The fridge is full, mom.
Let me tell you something.
Eating soup in the evening is the best for losing weight.
Upon my word.
I didn't know it till now.
Soup is the only source of weight loss.
Are you sure you don't want bread?
Check if you like the soup. If not, you don't have to eat it.
It's really good!
- Mom, give him some bread! - Wait a sec.
- For me? - Yes.
Don't you want bread?
Miss Toma, you decided to honor us with your presence.
She obtained some new accessories.
Say, Una, are you going to a conference?
I've always wanted to dress up for a party.
Are you going to a NATO conference?
I meant heels. I've always wanted to wear high heels at a party.
- And you never wore before? - No.
You don't have to know you're shooting, and pull suddenly.
You have to slowly apply pressure on the trigger, so the gun isn't moving.
If you do a sudden move, you lose accuracy.
Not like this, your left arm...
I'm gonna try to shoot straight, and then slowly.
To feel the difference.
Got cold feet? Got cold feet?
Are you nervous, Nico?
What can I say?
- How do you think the show will be? - Awesome.
My life, please tell me what to say, and I'll say it.
Define racism?
Non-scientific, social-political belief
in biological and intellectual inequality between races.
Xenophobia is a fear of or hatred for strangers.
It refers not only to aversion for another ethnicity, culture or religion
but also to fear of unknown people and concepts.
- OMG, my brains is on fire! - What else? Bullying?
- Go. - Bullying? Told you already.
Hostile behaviour involving exclusion, intimidation, brutal acts...
- Let's go in. - God, I'm shitting my pants.
- Sir? - More intense?
This blue is pointless, but the violet is stunning.
It's perfect, full of feeling.
Soul, passion, dance.
2, 3, 4, 5, 6.
Go more in front.
1, 2.
1, 2, 3, 4.
That's it! Don't forget to bend.
Fed up of getting weird looks when entering a bank?
I see racism, stereotypes
discrimination, every single day!
Are you fed up by random police street searches?
I see people looking at me in the metro...
I see the invisible line between the Center and the Ghetto.
In Romanian... Aren't you fed up of being Black in a world of White people?
Your rights are bedtime stories.
Education for the poor is a nut hard to crack.
Use Whitenol face cream!
Whitenol! Brings out the White in you!
Everyone ready?
- Ok, good! - Keep quiet for a bit!
First, this is a spontaneous march.
There are no leaders.
We are just participants. And that is all!
- Stef will be in front... Stefania... - Here.
I'll be in charge of authorities
And we need a second person on the megaphone.
So that we all get the chance to speak.
We have two options.
We are either using the megaphone
to ring the alarm. And after that I'm going to say
This is an warning sign so that you pay attention
to our message...
Or... I could do a theater exercise.
You're great, anyhow!
No worries on my part!
I didn't stress too much explaining stuff to you.
- You feel the crown, you're there! - And this time my throat doesn't hurt!
Lately I started thinking
that it's not such a good decision to stay in Romania.
It's not that I'm disappointed.
Because I didn't have any expectations, anyhow.
And I couldn't speak for all kids in Romania
because I don't know what they all want.
I want to leave and I want to explore.
And I'm ready to do it because I need a break from Romania!
If you would have a message for the politicians, what would you tell them?
We are the educated people you are not listening to.
But you are the uneducated people we are forced to follow!
Let's not think that this will turn bad.
Let's think what we can do to do it well!
People with potential, and that want to do something
will not stay in Romania, I think.
I'd rather go to Royal Academy of Dramatic Arts.
Because I see an opportunity.
It's not about luck.
Because if you train for something, you're good at it.
And if you really want to get there, and make something of yourself,
you fight, and you fight, and you fight.
And, at one point, you'll make it!
- What do we want? - Climate Justice!
- When? - Now!
I think we all have friend or relatives living abroad.
What you're doing today, is for them!
Head up, smile on your faces!
Play, Play, Playhood!
For those experiencing their first Mazinga
the golden line
the essence of theater.
It's for us, Goddamnit! Let's shout Hooray for it!
And from the top of your lungs!
It's for us, Goddamit! Let's shout Hooray for it!
Good luck, Brainstorming!
Everyone to your places!
If you really want to know
us, Romanians, as an ethnic group, we are 30 millions in the world.
Right now, in Romania, we are only 16.
So we're celebrating the centenary of the Great Union
with half the people living in other countries.
I'll send you the data, if you don't believe me.
I think it would be really cool to go to a folkloric concert together.
Yeah, anyhow you're leaving abroad, so I guess you don't care.
Of course I'm leaving!
We are celebrating 100 years of laziness and ignorance
and this country cannot offer me what I want.
And the next 100 years?
- Who's taking care of those? - So I will not thank you.
Or, in fact,
I will thank you because I'll get to where you never thought I could.
I'll thank you, and I'm sorry it had to be this way.
But I can't wait to get to Berlin,
and find there fair people, above all!
I'm sorry!
A historical song reminds us
That brothers will forever be brothers
A war song, as old as the Union
Listen, my compatriots
A war song, as old as the Union
Listen, my compatriots.
We did the Union with swords
All marching towards Alba
All country's men were signing the union
The will of all our people
The natural union with our homeland
Was our holy ideal.
- Number One! - Marian!
Numero Una! Is there anybody else around here?
You were super cool, really!
Those graduation speeches...
I was listening and thinking of myself!
Yeah, truly wonderful speeches!
In one year and a half, I'll finish high school.
And that's why I liked it so much.
- You know how honest I am, right? - For sure!
- I'm here. - She's here.
Thank you for coming.
He's tinier, you see... don't you wanna hug me too?
- Oh, sorry, sorry! - ‘Cause I had the initiative.
Thanks for coming.
Thank you, for startling me!
You made me not wanna leave
and study at the Royal Academy of Dramatic Arts, you know?
- How so? You're not going to RADA? I'm also applying for RADA.
Really? I'll apply directly to UNATC.
- Why is that? - ‘Cause I've seen your show.
- Because you don't have money for RADA! - I can apply for a scholarship.
It's also the money issue, but I'd rather stay here.
For RADA you get no scholarship.
Then I'll do it from Romania!
Dear Brainstorming!
Take a small sip!
With the vodka bottle in your hands, make a short toast, ok?
- Ok! - Where's the vodka?
I have it!
I dedicate this to Eliza, whom I truly love
and I wish her the best. I love you, Eliza, we all do!
Fuck you!
- Fuck you, Eliza! - Una fucks Eliza!
This is for us, may we all get to college!
And I'd like to say that, when I'll leave the country
I'd want to meet people like you!
When I was little I was crazy about the UK.
I had applied for a grant to finish high school there.
I got shortlisted, they called me to Bucharest for a test
to get into the last phase.
I was over the moon, but then I got some...
family issues and stuff.
Here, problems are a challenge to think up solutions.
Abroad, things are somehow better
and you feel more comfortable with yourself.
Two weeks before school started, I had this moment like
"What if I can't get a job after college?"
"and end up homeless and starve to death?"
This weird panic.
I'm so afraid I'll get in the wrong crowd.
It already makes me panic.
There's no way that can happen.
You pick your own crowd.
You click with people, you stick with them.
And that part about university and jobs...
Remember I quit university and I still have a job.
A great one, that I envy you for.
See? You won't die without a diploma.
I know, I just had this... overthinking moment.
- You go first. - No, you.
Alright, we sync spoons.
Two, three, go.
- You scooped too much. - Of the whipped cream?
How are you feeling?
So, so.
Not that good, but what can I do?
Oh, she's completely grieved me.
I'm dead serious.
I don't care about anyone, if I have my mom.
I'm dead serious.
I don't even care about God, if mom's with me!
My mom is most important for me.
When I see she's sad, and she's in pain, I just can't stand it!
Like you never swore at me!
I'll slap you if I want, I'm your mother.
Wouldn't be the first time.
I got so angry with you!
- What, and you didn't deserve it? - I deserved to be beaten?
- You raised your voice at me! - So what?
- "So what"? - That's no reason to hit me.
- No wait a minute, that's... - I'm telling you.
It's not like I bruised you!
That's an exception, but I won't have anyone hit me.
I won't have anyone yell at me either.
- But you can yell at me? - Never!
Maybe I snap a little.
When you say "Shut up, leave me alone"?
That's not yelling. When I say "shut up", it's just...
I mean it like "stop it!".
- You mean "shut up". - Compared to what others do...
Hello, I'm filming this in my garden.
It's very cool!
It's cold.
The most important things for me...
Starting with people.
People are crucial to me, in general.
My house is really important to me!
I need my house, because it's quiet.
I need my house throughout the seasons.
I need to be alone, many times.
It's essential for me to be on my own.
That's why I spend many mornings by myself
and I like it a lot.
Going to the theater, that's something really important.
It's something I really like doing.
At the theater you're like on your own, and it's quiet.
Music is crucial to me. Lately, I listen to music non-stop.
I can't be for three seconds without music.
It really is important to me. That's it, I guess.
I found a transparent leaf.
What did you steal, Codrut?
These two euro sandwiches
and this cake.
- What's written there? - Alka, homemade cake.
Bro, I'll bring it back, I'm too ashamed!
Let's eat it first!
That's what hunger does to people!
Whatcha doin' out, at this hour?
I have a question for you: still selling copper?
- Still selling copper? - Yeah.
Does your mama know you're gay?
Bro, I dunno how to film this!
Is it Razvan? Yeah, that's Razvan!
I'm gonna bring him down, I'm not shittin' you!
Romania is getting ready for partial lockdown.
Authorities take drastic measures
and are asking all of us to be aware of the significance of the disaster.
We've decided to take well thought out measures measures.
Tough measures!
Good morning!
I just woke up and...
It's...
10.38.
The first time I'm waking up so early in many days.
I have issues dealing with time!
It's so...
frustrating...
I feel like time is not moving.
It stands still, or moving very slowly,
and, the next moment, it feels like it's moving too fast.
I don't know... I mean... I feel...
I don't know what is happening, these days.
At the same time, it's very weird,
'cause as it stands still or moving too fast,
it's like moving away from me...
I don't know, I feel like I'm in the Matrix!
I feel I'm... a slave among numbers.
I'm counting the days. I have four days, three days, two days left
and I'm like...
I feel like... super torn and suffocated by things
and, at the same time, it feels like I have nothing to do.
Yo, I did it!
Nico?
That's it, sister, that's it!
- You have to see this frame, it's awesome! - I'm thirsty.
Coronavirus. There's water over there.
- Stop coughing like a cat! - Funny!
I was with Bulina and Beti on the street and, what do you know,
All five of us, four, actually.
It was me, Razvan, Beti and Bulina.
Buli goes on the main street, looks to the left, looks to the right
he turns and he says "the cops are coming!"
And, what do you know? Bro, a huge van with cops!
True, they stopped me as well, and fined me!
Full with cops, but those cops, damn, they were like
- Yo. - Never in my life saw cops like those.
- They were like two, three meters tall. - Funny, two, three meters!
Something like that.
With pads, from here to here, those elbow pads, see what I mean?
Like huge on the elbows, huge on the shoulders.
On their legs as well, huge knee pads, to amortize...
Police chased us earlier and sent us home!
We were all out, but police forced us in!
Bro, Ferentari is completely empty!
Like the entire Ferentari is empty!
For how long did you, like...
Did you take this whole Coronavirus thing seriously?
'Cause I've only seen you on the streets, with me!
I actually took it seriously but,
as long as I don't stay close to other people,
I have nothing to be afraid of. I'm only concerned for my mom.
Nothing can happen to me!
Honestly, if I'm hangin' on the streets, I avoid going back home.
Well, that's good thinking! Lately, since Coronavirus happened...
Bro, we really we really like hangin' on the streets
We're really diggin' it, 'cause we hated school
booze and bullshitting were my thing
To chase the boredom, when night fell.
The coppers!
We have to get lost on the streets, they're coming!
- Let's film them! - They're comin' our way!
Bro, come here!
Come here, now! They're chasing us really fast!
Shut up, bro!
Today it's...
like...
day Six.
I haven't been outside for six days.
and...
I feel like I'm going a bit loco.
It's so weird what's happening.
I was thinking about it today.
I'm kinda disappointed in people.
They are all over the place, walking around like crazy ants...
Why can't people just stay in their houses?
I mean, really, is it that hard?
I have a question, but please don't get mad at me!
Does your hair have Coronavirus?
Yeah... State your full name. Mine, right?
No, your mom's, she's the one sending you out!
Or, idk, where are you sayin' you're going?
At the corner shop, right? That's always likely.
Habet Gilbert and Ionut. Date of birth. I'm not telling you!
Place of intended trip...
Where in hell should I go, if I'm with you, at Unirii?
In my opinion, this whole Covid story is a big hoax!
I'm betting my life on it!
Well, yeah, I don't know... so...
Omg, I'm really out of words these days!
- What did you do? - It doesn't really fit in here.
My biggest problem is that I have no drive to talk to people.
It saddens me deeply,
and it reminds me of how far away we are from each other.
I lost track of time, what can I say?!
That's what happens in a lockdown!
And the exams are getting closer! I can't believe it's so soon!
I'm like... the exams are coming, man!
Such a bullshit, this online schooling!
They should've left it like this and flunk us all.
They should've better flunk us all, than having online schooling!
There are kids, in the countryside, dying of hunger,
they have no money for tablets and laptops!
True, true that, bro!
There were moments like, super awkward...
"Are you there, dear?" and no one answered!
you don't want to be the first one the teacher hears.
Fifteen minutes of "Can anyone hear me? Can anyone see me?"
"Do you understand what I'm saying?"
Twenty five minutes of class,
out of which ten complaining that it's online
and, then, that was it.
We are the dumbest country, with the dumbest laws!
I'm sorry for all these people believing this Covid story.
They're wearing those masks on their eyes, nobody sees what's going on!
Today, I should've went with some friends
stay together at a lake, I don't know exactly the place
but we would've been there together.
So I've got into a big fight with my parents because of it,
because my dad is in the risk group.
I don't know, I feel like a stupid teen, who just wants to have fun!
My dad is in danger if I go out! Then I'm not going out!
I'm not gonna meet all those people.
Two days ago I found out we need to stay in quarantine.
My entire fucking family!
Cause mom is a nurse and...
- I have a sore throat! - Please, don't be a piggy!
No, really, I woke up like this...
They are so power thirsty these cops, and they're abusing it!
We have to hide from the cops, here, in Romana square.
A lot of police, it's been better in Ferentari!
I'm going to feed a cat my mom fed an hour ago.
But that's our little secret!
This lockdown fucked up my sleep.
As I'm not going out of the house, to get air,
it's very hard to fall asleep.
I don't know, it's super weird!
It's not that relaxing for those who didn't get out of the house.
It's this Chernobyl vibe.
I don't know how to put it.
I didn't stay inside not one single day, during the lockdown.
I didn't get out of the neighborhood much, tho.
I'm happy because I'm gonna pass the exams
and I'll get rid of the Romanian school system.
I piss on it!
And I'll go to college where I'm hoping it's gonna be better
otherwise I'll move abroad 'cause fuck the Romanian education system!
'Cause it's fucking shit!
Wake up in the morning, get dressed, get undressed!
Those are my problems!
You should know that's life on a construction site.
It's like weightlifting, come on!
- Where are those racks? - There they are!
- You think you're funny? - No, god forbid!
- Wanna go for a beer later? - No, thank you!
You're lucky that I love you!
The human body makes exchanges of matter and energy with the living environment
by means of nutrition functions.
Digestion, circulation, respiration and excretion.
The digestive system includes the organs through which food is digested,
their transformation into absorbable products, the absorption of nutrients
and the elimination of unabsorbed residues.
The tongue is a muscular structure with a role in mastication,
deglutition, swallowing, speech and with the role of sense organ.
To get a haircut. I want to get a haircut.
Wait a little longer and we'll go to my place.
Ok then, bro.
- What did you say? I didn't understand. - Okay, I said.
- Hey, dad? - Yeah.
Are we bringing out the garbage at night? No we don't, it's bad luck.
- I'll take it tomorrow morning. - Ok.
Come, Misha, come to mama.
- Come, Misha. - Ferentari, junk.
She's starin' at me, drivin' me crazy!
She says she wants me, but she has a baby.
Thug life's hard, gotta fight to be OG.
Gotta put her on my list of fulfilling fantasies!
The little quirky, she made me playin' dirty.
Switchin' positions, with no intermission.
Kill that bug, over there!
- What a intro! - Love, bro.
- How much longer? - No idea, here for a while.
- Where should we go? - Let's go around, and we'll see.
I say one thing, she hears another!
For the first time in 2020...
I'm gonna get so sick!
It was super easy!
We got Blaga.
It is what it is! Worst case I'll get an A.
Now I'm eating something and I'm rushing to rehearsals.
Because in the morning, when we arrived everything went great
no one to bother us, in our special seats,
they threw us off the train!
We have no money!
With 13% battery life left,
from Fetesti,
I'm filming this to let you know
I ended up sleeping in the train station.
Omg, my heart is racing!
I got a B- in literature.
- B+ in math and an A- in biology. - Great, Stefi!
- And I have a B+ overall. - Omg!
But those aren't like... good grades...
What do you mean, omg, my heart is racing!
I don't think those are good grades...
I was expecting more in biology. Why did they punish me?
Honey, but your grades are really good!
Like, you're gonna be among the first for college.
I really don't feel those are good grades...
Honey, please don't... it's ok, you're gonna be among the first.
Idk, I got a B+, but I'm not happy with it!
Well done, baby!
May the good Lord protect you!
You deserve it! You are the best child, the best little girl!
And this is your year!
- You're rewarded for all your hard work. - Omg, this astrology!
- Astrology, indeed, let's see about that! - Well, it was ok, for the moment.
The year didn't start great, but now it's ending better.
Yes.
God is taking good care, he won't let you down.
Yes.
All children should be helped. They all need and deserve it.
- Yes.
Mama's little bunny, Mama's little angel.
- You won't forget to call, sometimes! - I can't make any promises!
Or at least answer your phone...
I don't always have my phone next to me, I mean...
We'll find a way...
I don't even like to...
...to hear it when it rings. You do, but I don't.
When Stefan left, I had you and I was suffocating you.
Now you're leaving too...
I'm glad you're aware you were suffocating me!
Yes, mama knows, just how many mistakes I made!
But now, that you leave, to whom will I complain?!
You don't have to depend on people, you have to manage on your own!
Being here, today, has a strong significance.
To be here physically, with so many people
it's already a great achievement.
And I would like you to be just as present, from now on,
in every moment of your future lives.
It's time, twelfth graders!
I have something really short to say and I'm going to really regret if I don't.
It's not as optimistic as the others
because I think high school is good and bad altogether
and I'm among those who didn't like school as much.
And...
I reached the conclusion, throughout high school, that...
respect is earned, not demanded
and many of our teachers still don't understand that.
Besides... I mean...
I really wanted to say this... for the other outlaws around here!
I also wish you all to love and be loved.
Congratulations, you graduated!
Three, two, one!
Once more, I don't think it's ok.
It's ok.
We passed the exam!
We all passed it!
She's applying for med school, but it's fine.
I also chose my university!
I watched Gossip Girl during lockdown
a stupid series, with rich kids from New York.
And I saw how life in US colleges was and I don't know what
and there was a boy who applied for a master's degree in writing at Tisch.
and I was like: "what is Tisch?"
I looked it up online, and saw it's NYU and how good it looks!
And I said to myself: "that's where I wanna go!"
So it's a seriously grounded decision, based on solid empirical data...
Well, that's how it went!
In this whole discussion, born very realistically,
money matters the most.
The money, which is... we didn't quite know what to do with...
We were out of ideas.
On what could we spend more money?
Or, not having money, in reality, she is aiming for a full scholarship.
Which means one eighth of one percent of...
Very few people.
I don't like America. I think that could be an advantage.
I won't go there brainwashed by the American dream!
Omg, the dream, or I don't know what!
Because it really isn't. It's a profoundly shitty country!
All, all those skyscrapers are empty!
This means that jobs have disappeared, there are a lot of people fired.
So it's a... that is, everything is connected.
- But how does that affect me? - It's snowballing, get it?
Well, first of all, what happened and seems to be increasing
is street level crime.
I really don't care about that!
Like, I don't know why, but I think about it and it doesn't affect me at all!
Maybe it would be good to see what crime means in the US, not here,
we are not talking about criminality in Bucharest.
Obviously, but there, first of all, it's a campus.
In the middle of the city, but it's a campus!
Hi! I have an S10E here.
I want to extend the contract, 'cause it ends on the 5th.
- On what name? - Muraru Constantin Andrei.
Here, that stays with you.
You have until the 18th, after that there's no grace period, ok?
Got it, thanks a lot.
Ready?
Please.
- Come on, ready? - Always prepared for what's coming.
Let me close the door first.
- Let's record all at once. - Ok.
Let's go.
My soul is cryin', the tears are fallin'
They all wanna grab it, 'cause they don't have it
Your blood shall be damned, it's already flowin'
By my mistakes I am stained
All in a heap, behind with a leap
Fine, I'll just follow the line
Nothing is worse when I'm hunted than feelin' like I am daunted
Fast as I ran, so I began.
Too many rags, (another side)
Too many faces (fallin' in line)
They want competition (and they shall have it)
With no ammunition (and they shall lose it).
So, it goes like this.
Ice
Face...
Ace... Place...
- Bro... - Wicked...
- Bro - Liquid
- Bro - Squid
Ouch
Omg, there's nothing here.
- So what should I do with the money? - Keep it, put it together with yours...
Keep it for now, and give it back to you later, right?
My boy, he gave me so much money!
Tomorrow evening he'll want it back!
Let's talk, what do you want to talk about?
Did you talk to mom, you didn't talk to her, right?
I didn't call her, I had no time...
Mihaela called me from Germany,
to ask me if I have news from mom.
She's not answering her phone either.
Well, if she's not answering, it means she's not answering.
Omg, the bass! It's too much.
I can't make mistakes any longer too many plans in my head
And I swear I'm gonna make you proud whatever I'm gonna do, dad.
That's it, here it goes nasty.
Please, stop with this nonsense.
I heard a saying today:
"Nobody truly cares about you"
"But if you're fine, everybody else will be fine as well".
Oh, shit!
- Good morning, Stefania. - Good morning.
- You are the first candidate today. - Ok.
We're going to switch to English, you're ok with that?
Please introduce yourself in a couple of minutes
and tell us about your motivations and objectives for studying abroad.
Hello, my name is Stefania Gartu.
I'm 19 years old,
and I am a student at the University of Bucharest
Faculty of Sociology and Social Work.
I'm in the Department of Sociology in English.
My motivations for traveling abroad would be, firstly,
because I want to have a different experience
I've always been a person who sought
and who enjoyed
having different experiences
and getting out of my comfort zone.
- I am a bit nervous. - No need to be nervous.
- Let me ask you a question. - Sure.
Some of the candidates have previous experiences traveling or studying abroad
some of you don't.
Please, tell us, what is your situation?
I've never traveled.
I've never, studied abroad.
I've applied for different scholarships
for example, for the Flex program or for other...
for other educational programs in the UK
I wasn't accepted.
But, even though I wasn't accepted,
I'm very glad...
I was
able to...
Ok, that's all for your interview today.
- Stefania, thank you very much! - Ok.
You can log out.
I think the results will be available sometimes next week.
Ok.
Ok, thank you so much!
- Good luck, bye. - Thank you, bye bye.
What the fuck?
Oh, God! I feel like I fucked that up so bad!
Yup?
Ok, I'm coming.
You know you can knock on the door, right?
- How are you? - Fine, you?
Sorry if I look like a demon... but, really...
It's so weird... I still don't I feel like... I'm on automatic pilot
it still feels weird, cause I still have stuff that has to be solved
and paperwork to fill out and I'm like leaving on Wednesday
and on Monday I have to sign the financial contract
it's all set with the University and I chose my classes
but that has to be sent as well... and I need to get my health insurance
and I can't believe it still,
that I'm doing the thing I wanted to do for so long
to live in a different culture, and meet new people
and to learn another language.
Omg, I can't wait!
And I'm going to be on my own, independent!
And I'm going to live in the center of the city, close to everything!
It's gonna be ok!
Should I try it?
- Do you want to? - Yes, I do.
Come on, do it!
Apply some pressure!
All you've got!
- It's gonna start now, watch out! - Come on!
You can hear it, you can hear t!
Come on, go!
- Come on, baby! - With force, come on!
- Come on! - That's it!
Vespa!
You know, when I was little, with my mom, I was once hungry,
and she went, and she bought me the exact same thing
bread, salami, hau, hau...
And, what do you think she said? "Are you hungry, baby?" "Yes".
She took a piece of bread, and she put...
she put a piece of salami in it, sat me on the street
and we ate, no shame, no nothing, you know?
And she said to me "Shame makes you die of hunger".
I need to do my ID and leave... Leave abroad...
Listen to that song: "I'm among strangers..."
You know? "And it's very hard..."
I need to go and make some money!
Kisses, bro!
When I'll be back, I'm gonna have a business plan and a minimal budget.
- A pastry, donut shop, IDK, a laundromat, - A shawarma place.
Shawarma... it needs serious dough, bro...
Dude, dude. Enjoy!
I should've passed the exam, bro. I'm twelfth grade.
Got it? Watch this out...
I've... from the eleventh, I didn't go to high school anymore.
I've finished eleventh, I've started twelfth...
I've stopped goin' 'cause, like, I went to work...
I've worked...
When I didn't work, I've wasted time, like a sucker...
I'm not sorry, 'cause next year, when classes start, I'll start twelfth again...
It's, basically, a wasted year.
But, at least, I'm glad that I've managed to save some money.
Give me a cigarette, would ya?
Yo, sis, I'll give you one, for sure!
Here's a tomato, if you want!
Sis, you know that saying, "what you give comes back to you"?
- Take. - I don't want the tomato...
- Please, eat it. Or I'll put it back. - I don't want it...
It's sad bro... it's sad to end up like that...
- What? - She has two... she has two kids...
Bro, I ended up like this 'cause I was poor.
But she had a good life, like, I don't get why she's doing this...
- What are you boys doing here? - Is there something wrong, m'am?
Ok, then... you want to pass by the Book Beach?
Ok, then we'll meet at Stuf, we're gonna come eat there, anyhow.
Kisses.
- We're taking a swim together. - Ok.
- Would you want to? - I don't know what to say.
- I would have stayed longer. - Me too.
We're gonna talk to her about it...
- Man! - There he is!
Are you back?
He finally saw me!
How are you, man?
Good, man, I called you, like, you heard me, but you went on.
I was on my skate.
- How are you? - Coming back from work.
Cool, maybe we meet, work on some songs
I've lost my phone and all my songs with it.
I know.
And there's nobody to push me to do something...
- You shouldn't lose hope! - I've lost all my... bro.
Bro, I've lost my Note 9. I had all my song written there.
I'll give you a tip.
I've lost all my work three times.
- Great, bro, but... - And, what do you think?
- I'll give you another tip. - Yeah, please do.
As a producer, nobody came to tell me "Do it, you're great!"
I did it, out of my own drive.
I've lost the lyrics, it's all about the lyrics.
The lyrics don't matter, the ideas are in your head!
I have no idea, bro, I don't know what I wrote anymore, get it?
I'm gonna try to run them through my head write them piece by piece,
see what happens, remember everything
run the beat on each song and see if I can still get something out of it.
You created them, you can rewrite them.
- What are you doing tonight? - Maybe we're coming by later.
- Are you going home? - Yes.
- Yes? - Free.
- Wait for me there. - Ok.
- Love you, man. You're going right away? - Yes.
- In thirty minutes I'll be there! - Sweet.
Kiss you!
I didn't get in.
- What? - I didn't get in.
- What do you mean? - I really don't get it.
It means... I didn't get in.
Well, they encourage you to try again.
That's what's written there.
Yeah, it's a standard email they are sending to everybody.
- Maybe you should try next year. - What?
Maybe you shouldn't try it again this year. Better next year.
This year I didn't get in!
- How about the other one? - I'm gonna get the results later tonight.
You're getting another answer?
Yes, but later tonight.
It's not fair to get the answers the same day!
- I have no idea why! - I'm really sorry.
The guy practically told me for my audition
"You have nothing to worry about!"
But the fight doesn't stop here, Una! The fight doesn't stop here.
- That's what I'm thinking as well! - Isn't it?
Don't you understand I have no plan B?
- What? - I have no plan B.
- Do you understand? - I understand.
All I want to is for you to be open for eventual plan Bs
and stop acting like you did...
When I tried to talk to you about a plan B
You told me "No, if I think of that" "it means I don't believe in the project"
- Yes, that's right. - Ok.
Then, you finished the applications...
so you didn't have...
you didn't have that drive "I'm applying, I'm applying"
"so I need to believe 100% in the project."
And, still, you didn't want to think at all about a plan B.
Well, no.
And even now I don't want to. I want to get into acting and be accepted.
- That's very good. - I'm going to try until I'm getting in!
Ok, so you are willing to keep trying.
That's what I wanted to hear.
Obviously, I'm gonna be an actress, no matter what!
I'm a bit arrogant, I know. I truly am, but...
Yes.
I think it would do me good.
Rather than thinking that...
that I'm not good enough...
Fuck it!
The problem is...
It's really good that you trust yourself. It's very cool.
I don't trust myself. But I'm trying to.
I don't know what else to do!
Miki?
- He should have been here already. - He's not.
You know he's doing Bolt, bro.
Thieves!
We're sweating like crazy, I know.
- You see? - Piece of shit, n***, where were you?
We were here before you.
- I had multiple stops, sorry. - Yeah?
'Cause you're Bolt!
- You paid some extra trips. - Omg, I'm soaking wet!
That's summer, bro!
Yo, cuz!
May your wife live a long life, with me and this guy here
if you're not bringing me a glass of water and have mercy.
It's ok, I'll take it myself. Bring a bottle of water, please.
Miki? Hear me out!
You won't believe me, but... today, me and Pici...
we were running with a speaker one hundred centimeters high
forty centimeters wide, rectangular, cube
fifteen kilos, in our hands, a wedding speaker
we took it and threw it over the fence, from his house
and I was running with it in my arms, down the street.
And he shouts "Run, run, run!"
I got scared, 'cause I didn't know who was coming from behind.
Yo, and I start running with the speaker, bro.
It was fricking hot!
We took it and we carried it from the Alley to my place
to put it in twenty...
You know what I feel like doing? I feel like taking the other one as well!
We're wasting the money on the streets anyhow.
Half for you, and half for me...
Bro! You still have that project, with my song?
- I have it, do you still remember it? - Play it, play it.
Play it...
Play it, to listen to my song!
The subwoofer is not turned on!
Did you hear me?
The subwoofer is not turned on.
The jack is not working, just a sec.
My mom is my world, do you understand?
She knows everything about me, she...
When you were in...
When I was in trouble, she was the first one to help.
"What troubles are you in? What's going on with you?"
"What are you doing, what?"...
"You're in deeper trouble than you can handle!"
"I'm begging you, get back on your feet get your ID, get a job"
"get back on your feet, I want to see you well!"
"You turned eighteen, it cannot go on like this!"
Please, stop talking about it.
What do you think, what can I tell my mom?
I cannot just drop it, I'm sharing this with you!
I know you do...
Shaggy?
Let's play a song, and then I'll listen, ok?
You know what they say...
We learn from our mistakes, but when we're wrong, are we still learning?
You feel me?
Now, if I'm destined...
to live my regrets...
You know what I'm sayin'?
You know what I can say?
Give me, God, I can take it!
I'm not made of stone...
I'm sorry for how I ended up
but I don't regret being like this!
I'm sorry I had to end up like this!
You know what I am? You know what I'm saying?
Omg, it's been so long!
I think in the past 3...4...5 years!
That's crazy... I grew a lot.
I can't believe who I was and what opinions I used to have!
I'm young and I don't have an answer to world's problems.
I'm very very confused about who I am...
And about my future...
So I'm taking a sabbatical.
I'm moving abroad again, in less than a month.
I'm moving to Belgium, to Brussels.
For an internship at the European Commission
Hi, I'm Una.
I'm getting really anxious to talk about myself.
And what I was doing lately.
Here I have a mirror.
That I took from Germany.
Because I traveled a lot in the past years.
And I discovered intimacy in many unknown places.
I have this.
One of my favorite books.
I have this.
A book from which I studied in the past two weeks, continuously.
Because I'm a student at the Faculty of Anthropology.
I came out.
As a fluid, non-binary person.
Propaganda. That's all!
I'm going to drink a tea now! Bye!
Hey! Hi, I'm the new Habet! I made peace with my past.
I'm aware and living in the present, hoping for a better future.
I want to have my own podcast, and create Instagram content.
And to become a paid musician.
I'm going back in the snow!
Give me, God, I can take it
I will carry all my troubles
No matter how heavy they get
I'm gonna pay my sins
As long as I live
And when I'll die, I'll know
I was a winner!
