A deceptively simple yet well-rounded tale of an illegal abortion in communist Romania that carries a tremendous wallop, delivering a rich exploration of character, friendship, responsibility and devotion under duress. It might sound grim but screen realism rarely captures a time and place so well, nor creates such excruciatingly tense drama from such everyday events as a birthday party or checking into a hotel. Totally convincing in every way, especially in the piercing performance of Marinca as the staunch friend who has to pay a high price for helping her dippy roommate.

Ffilm effeithiol iawn am erthyliad anghyfreithlon yn Rwmania gomiwnyddol, mae'r ffilm hon yn un ag ergyd iddi mewn cymdeithas lle nad oedd dim yn ddiogel.
