  • What’s Inside: A peek into a new film about tough times.
  • Director Marius Olteanu’s next project.
  • The movie’s pandemic setting.

We just heard about a new movie that sounds intense! It’s called ‘We Won’t Get Old Together.’ The director, Marius Olteanu, made ‘Monsters.’ Now he’s back with another film.

This one is set during the pandemic. It’s about a guy. He’s having a tough time. His whole life is falling apart. He has to start over.

The movie is being shown at the Transilvania International Film Festival. It’s in the Works in Progress section. That means it’s still being made. But we’re already curious about the vibe. Imagine the muted colors of Bucharest during a lockdown. The aesthetic is probably going to be pretty raw and real.

Our Take

Life can be really hard sometimes. Especially when everything feels uncertain. This movie sounds like it captures that feeling. We appreciate stories that show the real struggles people go through. It’s a good reminder that we’re not alone in facing tough times. We’re looking forward to seeing how Olteanu brings this story to life!
