Do Not Expect Too Much From the End of the World, dir. Radu Jude, Romania / Luxembourg / France / Hungary / Switzerland / UK 2023, Romanian, English with English subtitles, 163 min. 18.
The latest film from one of contemporary cinema's most radical filmmakers, charts a day in the life of an overworked and underpaid film production assistant, Angela, who drives around Bucharest filming work accident victims for a German multinational corporation.
Following up his Golden Bear-winning Bad Luck Banging, Radu June crafts a two part tragi-comedy which inventively dissects corporate malfeasance and the absurdities of modern life. Awash with literary, cinematographic and political references, Jude once again explodes the conventions of narrative and form with radical abandon and to exhilarating effect.
