A flight attendant who has successfully existed as a single independent woman for years finds herself delivering a child mid flight. This moment flips her world on its head. She no longer understands why she's alone. In a somewhat dire state, she becomes involved with a boy who is living under the streets of Bucharest. Her love borderlines obsession as she navigates her maternal instincts and the sexual advances of a teenager. (Austin Film Festival)

An exemplary European drama in which the western world shows how miserable life in the eastern world is. If I were Romanian, I would take this personally. The topic is interesting yet very naïve. Especially the flight attendant was incredibly naïve. However, in the context of European drama it is a solidly mastered piece. It was the naivety of the woman in blue which made me wait for what would come next, yet at the same time I could guess how it’s gonna end. The film’s ending didn’t disappoint.
