BEYOND THE HILLS Apr 19-25
By Cristian Mungiu, Drama, NR, 150 min, in Romanian
"An austere but subtly textured retelling of a 2005 news story in which a young woman died during an exorcism." - Washington Post
"Fascinating [and] anguishing ..." - Wall Street Journal
Alina and Voichita have been friends since their orphanage days. And they have been lovers since they became sexually mature. But despite their oath of mutual fidelity, Alina, who could not bear poverty any more, emigrated to Germany where she became a barmaid. Now she just could not take the estrangement from Alina and today she is back to Moldavia with a view to taking Voichita along with her to Germany. The only trouble is that in the meantime her girlfriend has betrayed her in falling in love with... God! Voichita indeed now lives in a convent where she plans to make vows. The priest agrees, if somewhat reluctantly, to accommodate Alina before their (hypothetical) departure. He sees all too well that not only is the young woman materialistic but hostile and troublesome as well.
