Storyline

Emi, a school teacher, finds her career and reputation under threat after a personal sex tape is leaked on the Internet. Forced to meet the parents demanding her dismissal, Emi refuses to surrender to their pressure. Radu Jude (Aferim!) delivers an incendiary mix of unconventional form, irreverent humor and scathing commentary on hypocrisy and prejudice in our societies. When her shockingly graphic home-made sex tape leaks on a leading online adult entertainment platform, the history teacher and role model, Emi Cilibiu, finds herself with her back to the wall and in grave danger of losing her job. As the once-respected and increasingly frustrated teacher walks the bustling streets of Bucharest on her way to the parent/teacher conference to face their wrath, more and more, Emi realises that she's fighting a losing battle. However, Emi won't go down without a fight, determined to confront sexism, racism, ignorance, chauvinism, her seemingly impeccable fellow citizens, and even preposterous conspiracy theories. — Nick Riganas
