The debut feature from Cristi Puiu (director of The Death of Mr. Lazarescu and the forthcoming Sieranevada) Stuff and Dough is an unnerving, verité -style thrilIer that reveals the lives of a group of young peopIe living in a country still recovering from years of misrule and negIect.
Seeking a way to finance his own independence Ovidiu agrees to courier a bag of what appear to be pharmaceuticaI medicines to Bucharest. Taking his friend Vali and his new girlfriend Betty along for the ride, their initiaI high spirits are shattered when a pursuing red jeep attempts to drive them off the road. They have no idea who's in the jeep or what they want, but a simple trip to Bucharest has suddenIy become a life-threatening ordeal...
Part crime thriIIer, part comedy, part chase movie, part familial drama the conscious conflation of genres in this dryly funny, poIitical, but deceptiveIy simpIe road movie quietIy reveals the state of contemporary Romanian life.
Second Run present the film from a brand new HD restoration. The DVD aIso incIudes Cristi Puiu's BerIin award-winning 2004 short film Cigarettes and Coffee (Un cartu de Kent i un pachet de cafea).
