Premiere Run! KONTINENTAL ‘25

Fri, May 29 – Sun, May 31 at 6:00, 8:30


2025 • dir Radu Jude w/Eszter Tompa, Gabriel Spahiu, Adonis Tanta • 109 min • DCP


In Radu Jude’s latest satirical provocation, he presents a film that is more economical in scale (and title) than his previous standout films like Do Not Expect Too Much from the End of the World. Yet it is no less witty and potent an interrogation of human society in the 21st century.


Orsolya (Tompa) is a bailiff in Cluj, Romania, where greed and corruption have accelerated the pace of development. Orsolya tries to do her job with care and compassion, but the problem is that that job involves evicting troublesome tenants and squatters from property that is to be demolished. One day she has to evict a homeless man from a cellar, an action with tragic consequences that sets her on an increasingly desperate search for solace.

“It’s a sneak attack of a movie, one that invites your laughter, even as it jabs you in the ribs.” – Manohla Dargis, The New York Times
