2. "4 Months, 3 weeks and 2 days" by Cristian Mungiu
14th march, 2:40 PM
When the flighty Gabita decides to terminate her pregnancy - a crime in Romania from 1966 until 1989 – her fiercely loyal university dorm-mate and best friend, Otilia, accompanies her to a hotel room to be “helped” by one Mr. Bebe, the only black market practitioner they can afford. When the foul Bebe requests something far more precious than money for his services, the girls descend into a harrowing journey of the soul that is nothingshort of shattering.
