The Red and White Spring Ball

Friday 28 March 2008
19.00-21.00, 1 Belgrave Square, London SW1X 8PH (see map here )
Entrance BY INVITATION ONLY. If you would like to take part to the event please write to us before 21 March at This e-mail address is being protected from spambots.

Our events are open to all although, at times, we reserve the right to refuse admission

Springtime will shortly be here (according to the calendar, at least, if not to the weather), and it is time to celebrate Nature’s coming back to life, to celebrate new beginnings and – being Romanians – to celebrate our “rites” of March: the ‘Martisor’ (the 1st of March), and Women’s Day (the 8th).
The former is an old custom celebrating the arrival of Spring. The latter - which is in fact the International Women’s Day – was made official in our country by the communist regime, but people adopted it for their own. Both celebrations are of equal importance in nowadays Romania, since both have become occasions to express our love and gratitude for the fairer sex.

• ‘4 Months, 3 Weeks, 2 Days’
Feature film /Romania/2007/113 min/Romanian with English subtitles
Directed by Cristian Mungiu. Starring Anamaria Marinca, Laura Vasiliu, Vlad Ivanov

After this screening of the acclaimed ‘4 Months, 3 Weeks 2 Days’ lead actress Anamaria Marinca will take questions from the audience.
Further evidence of the continuing renaissance of Romanian cinema (‘The Death of Mr Lazarescu’, ‘12:08 East of Bucharest’) was presented when ‘4 Months, 3 Weeks 2 Days’ won the Palme d'Or at this year's Cannes Film Festival. The film is set over one long night in the final years of Ceausescu's regime and traces the attempt of two students to attain an illegal abortion. In 1987, Otilia and Gabita are university roommates in an all-female residence. When Gabita becomes pregnant, they arrange a meeting in a cheap hotel room with criminal abortionist Mr Bebe. There are many standout scenes - rarely has screen realism been so nail-bitingly tense and dramatic - and a superb central performance from Anamaria Marinca as Otilia.

• ‘4 Months, 3 Weeks, 2 Days’
Feature film /Romania/2007/113 min/Romanian with English subtitles
Directed by Cristian Mungiu. Starring Anamaria Marinca, Laura Vasiliu, Vlad Ivanov
‘Screen realism rarely achieves such a vivid texture of a country and a time as this excruciatingly tense drama, the Palme d'Or winner at Cannes this year, about two young women living in an all-female dorm in 1980s Romania. The story takes place over one long night. Vague Gabita is pregnant and wants an illegal termination, but she has been dilatory about arrangements with the criminal abortionist. When her staunch friend and room mate Otilia tries to straighten things out she is made to pay her own price to make sure it happens. An extraordinary odyssey of desperation and terror ensues, against a grim environment of quasi-Soviet officiousness. [...] Director Cristian Mungiu's superb arthouse nail-biter is convincing in every way, especially in the piercing performance of Anamaria Marinca as Otilia.’ (Nick James)
