Description: Andrei, a 13-year-old teenager living at the outskirts of Bucharest, decides one day to steal a bus in order to impress Marilena, a prostitute he fell in love with. Things you do for love? ?Marilena from P7 plunges into the universe of teenage emotions that we all remember. It is a study on the ? sometimes small, sometimes big ? reasons that make us turn from children into teenagers. The story takes place in the ?exotic? outskirts of Bucharest, and the background is peopled with many authentically racy characters. Besides telling the story, the film also makes a cross-section of the life in the suburbs of Bucharest at the beginning of the 21st century, with no intervention whatsoever on most of the locations and extras. The hand held camera shooting style offers the opportunity to capture details and genuine background elements that enforce the ?documentary? atmosphere of the movie?

IMDB Comment:
“Considering its length, Marilena could well be thought of as a little masterpiece. The reason: it naturally captures the essence of life in a Bucharest ghetto: a gypsy Elvis impersonator (who sings Love me Tender in gypsy), the dirty facades of the projects built in the Ceausescu era and forgotten in that dilapidated state, and the people who inhabit them all remind one of a nightmarish atmosphere no one would even want to come close to. Nemescu’s gift is in rendering that atmosphere not only accessible to anyone, but even attractive and interesting”.
