The Happiest Girl in the World

Radu Jude's brilliantly paced account of a family's day in Bucharest is a darkly comic satire on the media, nascent capitalism and parental power

Drama 2009 99 mins

Director: Radu Jude

Rent for £3.50

Overview

A highlight of Romanian film's renaissance, Radu Jude's perfectly paced chronicle of a smalltown family visiting Bucharest so that the teenage daughter can appear in a soft-drinks commercial is a darkly funny satire on contemporary life: the vacuity of advertising, the obsession with celebrity and glamour, the power of parental greed. Jude works wonders with narrative economy and repetition
