A Trip to the City (2003)
A computer-loving village teacher and the mayor’s driver set off from their village to the city on two seemingly simple missions: to buy a computer with internet access for the community and a toilet seat for the mayor. A short comedy about bureaucracy, local ambitions, and the small absurdities of transition.

Gone with the Wine (2002)
Costel feels out of place among his fellow villagers, for whom drinking seems to be the main form of escape. Dreaming of a life “elsewhere”, in England, he tries to take the first step toward leaving.

Liviu’s Dream (2004)
Liviu lives in a provincial town and seems trapped in an existence with no way out, marked by compromises, regrets, and the fear of repeating the mistakes of the past. A strange dream and the approaching birth of his child push him toward a confrontation with his own life.
