Face-s-ar pământul cer

MAY THE EARTH BECOME THE SKY — Portugal, Romania, Belgium, Hungary 2022 — Directed by: Ana Vîjdea — 15 min — Production Company: Remora Films — Producer: Ana Vîjdea

Maria, a 50-something member of an Orthodox parish in Lisbon, divides her time between prayer and daily tasks such as olive picking. She faces a dilemma: become an ascetic, or reconnect with her two sons. Ana Vijdea paints a sensitive portrait of a woman in the midst of existential doubt, in a film where images are mightier than words.
