“Lady Bird”, Romanian Premiere at the 2018 American IFF


     One of the most acclaimed films of 2017, Lady Bird, directed by Greta Gerwig (winner of two Golden Globes and with five Oscar nominations) will have the Romanian premiere during the American Independent Film Festival. The screening will take place on Friday, April 27, at Cinema PRO, from 18:00. The tickets for this screening and for the premiere screenings of Certain Women and The Rider are available on Eventbook.ro.
     Lady Bird marks the directorial debut of Greta Gerwig, one of the most beloved personalities of the independent film world. At the same time, Greta is the youngest female director ever to receive a Golden Globe and the fifth woman nominated for this category. Another Golden Globe went to the actress Saoirse Ronan who plays Christin “Lady Bird” McPherson, a high school graduate applying for college, who is at war with her family and with the world.
     The action takes place in Sacramento, California, in 2002, against the background of the precarious American economy and the film comes with a tender look upon the relationships that shape us, the convictions that define us and upon the beauty of that place we all call home. The film brings in front of the viewers one of the richest mother-daughter relationships on the big screen, combining classical elements of the teenage-comedy with new and mature shades. The cast list also includes Timothée Chalamet, known for his part in Call Me by Your Name, for which he received nominations for the Oscars, the Golden Globes and the Bafta Awards.
