Ivana Mladenović's documentaryTurn Off the Lights was showed this year at Tribeca Film Festival in New York and can be seen at 12.30 in Cinema Victoria in Romanian Days section of Transilvania IFF.

After years behind bars, three young men begin to rediscover lives of aggression and excess in their raucous Roma community. Among them is Alex, a captivating figure with a disturbingly blasé attitude toward violence, women, and guilt. In this absorbing documentary, offering a rare peek into contemporary Roma culture, Alex and his fellow ex-cons reconcile the outside world with the gray-shaded areas of morality with which they all struggle.
