Do not miss Radu Muntean's Boogie, one of the best films of the young generation of Romanian directors! Boogie is a film about people in their 30's who try to reconcile marriage and partying, freedom and responsibilities, teenage and adulthood.
The screening will be followed by a Q&A session with acclaimed actress Anamaria Marinca and film journalist Edward Lawrenson
On his spring break at the seaside, with his wife and his four year old son, Bogdan runs into his best friends from high-school at the precise date and time that reminds all of them of their most glorious drinking trips and sexual escapades of their younger days. Frustrated that, between his job and his family, time is no longer his to manage and play with, Boogie now takes his shock dosage of freedom.
