About the film:
A sarcastic and ironic approach to one of Romania’s social problems. One of the worst problems in this Balkan country is that of the beggars.
A professor of philology at a high school finds himself entangled in his love affairs.When faced with the financial demands of a relationship he finds an unexpected way to earn easy money.
The film is an excellent commentary on societies in crisis: there are only princes and beggars (and there are only stray dogs in between).
