A big RF congratulations to director Christian Mungiu and his film 4 Months, 3 Weeks and 2 Days which took home top honors and was awarded the Palme d’Or (The Golden Palm) at this year’s Cannes Film Festival. Mingui’s small film (made for less than $700,000) examines the issue of abortion in Romania during Communist rule and how attitudes to this volatile issue are affected by political systems, how a country indoctrinates its citizens, and stereotyping.
