5 Minute

-Plot: A tenacious journalist hunts the leader of a local police squad accused of inaction at an LGBT event in Bucharest. -A captivating movie that kept me on the edge of my sit. Congratulations, Dan Chisu! -Powerful, well established characters and excellent acting: Major Nicu Holban (Mihai Calin), journalist Liliana Calomfir (Diana Cavallioti), Coman (Emanuel Parvu) and Anca (Ana Radu, only 17 at the time of the filming). -Good script by Dan Chisu, with several themes woven into a colorful rug: the conflict between generations, the relationship with authority, attitudes toward homosexuality, the importance of tolerance, the depth of religion, various forms of love ... -Being right feels good. With the flag of righteousness in hand, various characters stump on law and morals, hurting love ones and themselves. -Several good final scenes in a quick succession. I thought: "What a good ending! But wait, this next scene is even better! OK, this is the real ending." -A movie about imperfection. -Quality cinematography by Adrian Silisteanu and editing by Letitia Stefanescu. It felt like a live news broadcast: dynamic, gripping. -What a difference 5 MINUTES can make! (?) -Let's go to the movies!
