Young Romanian documentarist Paula Onet’s award-winning film captures the poignant way in which a group of elderly Romanian villagers look after the portraits which already adorn their final resting place. Taken all together, the pictures might also be perceived as a public photo album.


Synopsis

Business is hopping at a photo studio in a small village not far from Cluj, Romania. Perfectly coiffed elderly residents arrive from a nearby hair salon to look their best for immortality. They are dead serious about posing for the camera, literally, for the resulting photograph will adorn the headstones of their carefully prepared graves. In her film, young Romanian documentarist Paula Oneț captures the touching way in which the villagers tend the appearance of their final resting place. Taken all together, the pictures could serve as a public photo album.
