In Radu Jude's caustic and compelling black comedy, recently-divorced Marius (Serban Pavlu) plans to take his young daughter on a weekend break. When things do not go as intended, he strikes out at those around him and what begins as a comic drama soon turns painfully bitter. Marius' increasingly erratic behaviour and morbid self-pity send the film spinning headlong into much darker territory. Jude's pressure-cooker drama is an unflinching, sometimes uncomfortable and often hilariously profane portrait of one man's disintegrating mental health, as his life and relationships crumble about him.
