4 Months, 3 Weeks and 2 Days Picture Gallery

Cristian Mungiu’s 4 Months, 3 Weeks and 2 Days won the Cannes Film Festival’s 2007 Palme d’Or, beating competition from festival darlings the Coen Brothers and Quentin Tarantino. A troubling, but perfectly judged tale of two girls seeking an illegal abortion in Communist Romania, and suffering humiliation at the hands of an opportunistic abortionist, this is a rewarding, if emotionally gruelling experience.
