The film follows a young married couple, Grant and Sofia, living in Los Angeles and looking to start a family. When Sofia, an out-of-work engineer, lands a dream job in her home country of Romania, she convinces Grant to put their plans on hold temporarily. One year on however and Grant, a successful young novelist, struggles to finish his latest book and feels homesick in Bucharest. Sofia on the other hand has flowered into a confident young woman working long hours and struggling to balance her home life and career. When a family crisis forces the couple apart, the physical and emotional distance forces the couple to take a hard honest look at their choices and to confront a decision that could alter their future forever.
This is a beautifully made movie. The cinematography was extremely impressive with a real sense of early Arthouse meeting with a French New Wave style of direction.
The two characters are clearly in love from the outset and are slowly pulled apart emotionally, culturally and geographically. It's certainly not a conventional 'Hollywood' love story by any means, so probably best to leave the rose tinted glasses off for this one.
It's a love story that is true to itself and occasionally you'll find yourself dragged through the everyday mundane moments that is their life together, but this gives you a truer sense of their reality and the negative impact that external pressures can have on a relationship.
Anyone who's ever been in a relationship will definitely be able to relate to it.
