Cinepub.ro Premiere – “Chers amis”, by Valeriu Andriuță

     This week`s the Cinepub.ro premiere is the short film Chers amis, directed by Valeriu Andriuță. The story takes place somewhere in the East. The administrative problems of a province school emphasizes the confusion of a society torn between a sad past and an uncertain future. The moment a Christmas miracle might occur, one detail brings everybody back to reality.
     Marian Sorin Rădulescu writes about Chers Amis: “A fine psychologist and an authentic humorist, Valeriu Andriuță succeeds in creating a memorable film with dialogues that cultivate – rara avis – the expressiveness of the word. We are feeling a lack of enthusiasm in our nostalgic characters that philosophize and speak in a Chekhovian manner. Chers Amis announces a promising director.” (“About a certain state of imponderability”, Literary Conversations, 2018)
