Film Summary
This Romanian black comedy follows the title character as he waits for attention in a rundown hospital emergency ward. Fans of Lars Von Trier's The Kingdom should find much to love here, as Lazarescu's trip to the medical unit descends into a nightmarish journey of horrendous mistreatment at the hands of the hospital staff. “Mesmerizing.” (Variety) “A heartbreakingly powerful masterpiece.” (Christian Science Monitor) “Produces tumultuous feelings of amazement and revolt.” (New Yorker)
