THE DEATH OF MR. LAZARESCU
MOARTEA DOMNULUI LAZARESCU
Romania, 2005, Cristi Puiu
This universally-acclaimed, Kafkaesque black comedy kick-started the New Romanian Cinema. A hard-drinking, 60-ish widower, living alone in Bucharest with his cats, feels sick one Saturday night and calls an ambulance. For the next several hours he takes a hellish journey through the labyrinthine Romanian health-care system—shunted from hospital to hospital, hoping for a doctor who gives a damn. A funny, harrowing, humanistic masterpiece! Subtitles. 35mm. 154 min.
Show Times
