money or love?
Good movie, beautiful soundtrack
A good movie after an even better book. This movie will give you a glimpse at life in Transylvania around the beginning of the twentieth century.
It gives you the chance to experience a little bit of Romanian traditions, culture and beautiful landscapes accompanied by extraordinary music.
There are some plot holes, for a more in depth experience I recommend the book.
Overall it is worth following Ion in his journey, it may give you something to think about.
