a mother

A single mother, immigrant, and her daughter. Games, dialogues and a great secret around the girl. A delicat moment. And the moment of truth. Virtues - the beautiful acting of Ada Condeescu ( I know, as Romanian I am more than subjective ) but the fair way to reflect motherhood and immigrant condition, the struggle to intergrate herself in a new world , the admirable last scene and, i admitt, the language are just lovely good points, used, in inspired manner, by Ada Condeescu.
