Acasa, My Home (2020)

A raw, unexpected Romanian gem! A quiet documentary (with no music score!) about a family of feral Romas (9 kids and their stubborn parents) who live isolated from society, in a nature reserve just outside Bucharest. Filthy, proud, tight-knit and independent, they are eventually chased out of their shack and subsistence living, and struggle with their integration into the system.

With a surprise cameo by Prince Charles (WTF?) who shows up for a UN ceremony to plant a tree.

The trailer.

Sublime 💯 score on Rotten Tomatoes.

7.6 on IMDb.

3.7 score on Letterboxd.
