Eu sunt Hercule (2017)

52 min. - Documentary - -


Synopsis: Baile Herculane, one of the oldest SPA resorts in Europe, where centuries ago kings and queens used to slip their bodies into the healing waters, becomes a labyrinth where the middle class people get lost in search for Well-Being.The place is named after Hercules who, legend says, has rested here. A biotope of a timeless place where everything seems connected with Hercules, body immortality, ancient beauty standards and healing waters.Relu, Mitica and Gelu, three self-made masseurs, serve as guides through this “low cost” East European Garden of Eden and together they create an absurd portrait of a modern Hercules.
