Everybody in Our Family

Synopsis: Recently divorced Marius plans to take his young daughter away on a weekend holiday. When things do not go as planned, he strikes out at those around him, and what began as comic drama soon turns bitter as Marius’ increasingly erratic behaviour and morbid self-pity send the film spinning headlong into much darker territory.
A key work of the Romanian New Wave, the film is an unflinching, sometimes uncomfortable and often hilariously profane portrait of one man’s disintegrating mental health as his life and relationships crumble about him.
