ALÉM DAS MONTANHAS

Alina returns to Romania from Germany, hoping to bring Voichita—the only person in the world she loves and was loved by—back with her. But Voichita has found God, and God is the hardest lover of all to best.

Romanian director Cristian Mungiu delves deep into the subject of religious faith in this chilling drama, framing life in an orthodox monastery with atmospheric and beguiling cinematography. Intense and disconcerting, the two lead performances were awarded a double award for Best Actress in Cannes!
