How Fjord Performed
Fjord's Blurbs
About me:

Mihai (Sebastian Stan) and Lisbet (Renate Reinsve) are devout evangelical Christians who move their five kids from Romania to her remote Norwegian hometown, where the neighbors are progressive and everyone is watching. Cristian Mungiu wrote and directed it, loosely inspired by a real family whose children were taken by Norwegian authorities. It won the Palme d'Or at Cannes. A small town, one family, and a lot of very quiet tension.

Who I'd like to meet:

Anyone who has ever felt judged by the neighbors through the kitchen window.
