Romania 1989, after the fall of the
communist regime many families lost
their houses. In the mean time almost
nothing improved. Many people of
Bucharest living at the periphery
manage to survive by selling
recycled metals.
Cocolari presents a strange world of
half-way measures, a half life where
there is shelter, but no warmth;
possession but no plenty; a neighborhood
in Bucharest where none was
meant to be.
