Provided that I have something to say and of course talent, every director can win after a film that gradual elimination of the gap between vision and achievement. This can lead him to maturity, where the means of expression no longer oppose, but contribute to a more effective embodiment of the vision on the screen. Then, any film is also for the filmmaker a journey into the unknown of knowledge. A film with a charming girl brought to an end the journey of getting to know an actress who, I hope, manages to prove on the screen that she is not surpassed by the singer Margareta Pîslaru, by two great talented actors, Emmerich Schaffer and Ștefan Iordache, by a cameraman who did not was overtaken by the documentary maker Olasz Tiberiu, of some collaborators and friends who made an essential qualitative contribution to the making of the film, such as set designer Giulio Tîncu, composer Richard Oschanitzky, costume designer Tomina, editor Dragoș Vitkowski, sound operator Bogdan Cavadia.

Ruxandra, this “charming girl” is 18 years old and is what is commonly called a negative character. Superficial, selfish, disoriented, she is nevertheless determined to become a movie star at any cost. It confuses the fulfillment of appearances with its realization as a human identity. Ruxandra plays, refuses to take life seriously, but eventually discovers, between cabotism and sincerity, a crêpei of truth. I received this role with great joy. He is very different from the roles in “Opera de trei parale” and “Tunnel” and also from my life. I always sought to understand my character, to identify with him, despite the fact that I still looked at him with a critical eye.

“Ruxandra, a young woman fresh out of school, decides to become an actress, convinced that her personal charm can substitute for talent. After failing the entrance exam, she consoles herself with the lead role in a commissioned instructional film directed by her friend. He, who had wanted to be a sculptor, experiences a crisis of conscience over compromising with advertising. Ruxandra abandons him and, in her room adorned with photos of stars, whiles away her time, gradually climbing the ladder of success.”
