For its 36th edition, FIDMarseille remains true to its mission: to spotlight independent cinema that is attentive to the echoes of the contemporary world and to the stories that reveal its fractures, both intimate and collective.

Nu aștepta prea mult de la sfârșitul lumii, Do Not Expect Too Much from the End of the World

Radu Jude

Romania, Luxembourg, France, Croatia, 2023, Color, Black and white, 163’

A production assistant travels around Bucharest to film the auditions for a video on safety at work, commissioned by a multinational company. An employee’s statement causes a scandal and complicates her mission. A shaggy, corrosive comedy of alienation.
