Synopsis:
Dragoș, a Romanian director, decides to make a film about his family's emigration to Germany in the 1980s. He investigates the emigration, which took place under suspicious circumstances, with the help of his ex-girlfriend, Ilinca. Their collaboration brings them closer together but complicates Dragoș's relationship with his fiancée. As he delves deeper into his family's past, secrets come to light, leading to revelations about surprising ties to the Securitate, and Dragoș's relationship with his parents gradually deteriorates, despite his desire to use the film to heal old wounds.
