Description
Summary:Verzio FF A modern fairy tale about bachelors in a remote village in Romania, where there is only one girl left: Elena. Being unmarried equals failure in this small traditional community. Unemployment and the lack of any social life in the village makes the young men spend most of their days and nights in the local bar, lamenting their bad luck and talking about Elena. She, however, is rather reserved, keeps mostly to herself, rarely goes out. Almost like a illusion, she is the fata morgana of the village who everyone talks about but is seldom to be seen. One day, however, Elena decides to leave. What will happen when the last girl deserts the village?
