useful exercise

in same measure, it is easy to criticize or admire. because it gives a different image about a community.romantic, sentimental, courageous, strange, touching , with large pieces of myth, not always coherent but interesting in each moment, remembering the Medieval search of Saint Graal, it is a beautiful film and an useful manifesto from its director. it has the gift to impress , to remember old story and old traditions, to present a portrait, to be naive and youth, delicate, nice and convincing in not ordinary manner. in fact, it is a love message, for his community, for its profound conscience. a far to be perfect exercise . and an useful exercise for public to discover the aura of Aromanians.

It could have been worse

... though, but not by much.

Aromanians, are the Latins/Greek of the Balkan peninsula, that have not been captured within Romania, Greece or Italy, and themselves are representative for the Byzantine empire, that has not changed to Greek, nor have wanted to become Westerners, by importing more mainstream Western Latin such as French and Italian in Romania. As minority across many geographies, it is tight knitted group. So all in all, their story could have been a great trip both in culture and experience, which it tried, but in a too much theatrical way, in a truly Balkan manner.

But the movie is almost pure junk, the acting is C-quality, although some actors have some movie experience, the story is really a fourth-grader, the soundtrack is hurting even for C-class Bollywood movies, the scenes are filmed by wedding videomans (and not the good ones), the dialogues seem to have come to mind after the start of the scene filming.

I'm sure many have seen already some masterpieces of Romanian film making, but this is not one.

So except for getting exposure to a Byzantine culture or for being one of the community, there is no real reason to see this.

I was expecting more, a lot more.
