SYNOPSIS Alice, a buoyant and impertinent red-hair teenager is far from the charming little girl her mother adopted as she was unable to have a child of her own. Being an endless source of problems and affected by the specter of her mother’s disappointments, Alice acts with her back against the wall, forging lies and blurring lines between the fiction she designs for herself and the reality of her existence. Until her mother discovers she is pregnant. ALICE T. DIRECTOR´S NOTE This is a film about unconditional love, from the viewpoint of a character whose desperate need for it, is pushed to the limits of the absurd. Alice is the failed project of a mother who, because she was unable to have a child of her own, adopted a charming little girl, who then turned into an impertinent and rather ugly teenager, a compulsive liar who seems to be nothing more than an endless source of problems.

    Filmografia-romena 08/05/12 22.44 Romanian New Wave From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Romanian New Wave Years 2004 - present active Country Romania Major Cristian Mungiu, Cristi Puiu, Cristian figures Nemescu, Cătălin Mitulescu, Radu Muntean, Corneliu Porumboiu The Romanian New Wave (Romanian: Noul val românesc) is a blanket term applied to a torrent of internationally acclaimed films made in Romania from the mid 2000s, starting with Trafic, which won the Short Film Palme d'Or at the 2004 Cannes Film Festival.[1] The greatest achievement of this New Wave thus far was winning the Palme d'Or in 2007 for 4 Months, 3 Weeks and 2 Days. Themes The majority of films of the Romanian New Wave are set in the late 1980s, during the communist regime of Nicolae Ceauşescu, and explore the struggles and resilience of life under dictatorship. However, some films, such as California Dreamin' and The Death of Mr. Lăzărescu, are set later, and are more concerned with the transition to free-market capitalism and democracy and the consequences on Romanian society. Aesthetically, the films of the Romanian New Wave are united by an austere, realist and often minimalist style. Furthermore, black humour tends to feature prominently.[2] Major Films ▪ Stuff and Dough (Marfa si banii) by Cristi Puiu (2001) - often considered as the first long-play movie of the Romanian New Wave, the one that started the explosion and stylistically inspired the stream of Romanian movies to come in the next years ▪ The Death of Mr. Lăzărescu by Cristi Puiu (2005) - Won the Un Certain Regard
