This film showcases more than the drama of the daily life of the Enache family. It shows how selfish and desperate we are all as a society.
Even if social assistance intervened and attempted to help Mr. Enache and his wife, there was there never an attempt to offer any mental health support for all the children involved in this life style.
The Enache family was just told that they can no longer live the way they used to live for more than 20 years, but with no guidelines, support or any proper analyze of how they ended living this way.
Mental health care is still a 'taboo' subject in most Eastern European countries and Romania continues to ignore this.
Sadly this documentary manages to highlight the emotional drama that the children are going through and the idiotic and continuous refusal of Mr. Enache to embrace living in a society.
The action is not taking place 50 or 40 or even 20 years in the past. This is as modern as it can be. That's why it's absolutely hearth breaking and mind blowing.
