Ultra-contemporary and entirely unique, Radu Jude’s anarchic film takes aim at late capitalism and internet culture with a mischievous swipe. As a dogged gig worker with an outrageous alter-ego, actor and content creator Ilinca Manolache gives a powerhouse performance in this award-winning satire.

If you ever wondered what a Radu Jude-directed Barbie would look like, here’s a taste. Staging colorful toys in comic and grotesque positions, this stop-motion short lampoons the sad cycle of human life, filled with sex, consumerism, and war. In such an existence, death seems to be a sweet release.
