Traveling on one leg
In 1985, in Communist Romania, the thirty year-old Irene falls deeply in love with a German, Franz. They have a short and intense romance. When Franz leaves Romania, Irene decides to follow him to Berlin to be with him. After her arrival, Irene gradually comes to realise that Franz no longer wants to be with her. She is sucked into a spiral of melancholy and nostalgia for her lost love and distant homeland.

Alexandru Petru Bădeliță is a romanian filmmaker, born in 1989. He graduated from The Romanian National Film University with a Master in the Art of Montage. His work includes fiction, documentary and experimental films, by creating a mix between animation and live action. His films focus on human portraits, dreams and surrealism, by using introspection and personal history as creative assets. Alexandru achieved recognition mostly through his experimental short films (awarded by The Filmmakers Union of Romania, BIEFF, selected in Clermont-Ferrand in 2016). Currently he is continuing his work by developing projects that include the technique of analogue and digital collage.
