Movie "TIFF Short Films 2"

Description

MERMAN: A female voice is haunting a male gaze. An archival documentary about three men making images of women, in Romania, from WW II until the Revolution: an engineer filming his daughter, a music professor documenting his family and an aristocrat capturing the summer spent with his wife during wartime. These stories are linked and told by a questioning female narrator whose obsession with the figure of Alexandru P. gets out of hand. ALBOCALMIN: Albocalmin is about that moment towards the end when children have to take the place of their parents, and parents, in turn, must play the role of children. And no one is prepared. NETWORKING: Two corporate colleagues find themselves in an awkward situation after agreeing to go on a date. THE CRYING GIRL: A camgirl starts to cry during a live stream. Initially berated by her Andrew Tate–wannabe pimp, the crying girl becomes the studio’s new sensation, as her authenticity draws in big spenders. THE GREAT UNION: A young nationalist and AUR supporter goes to visit his friends in Bucharest, to convince them to go to the December 1st Parade. In the morning no one makes it to the parade.
