    A story,and with it Slavici proved his true genius.It is a love story,which follows the inner transformation of a man who tried to fight his demon, the love for money, and lost.This movie shows what becomes of a man when he looses the fight with himself,and at the same time looses contact with his love.This fight is hidden at the beginning behind the conflict between Ghita and Lica Samadaul,and one would think that is the classic bad vs good fight.It is more a fight between pure evil and a simple, probably too ambitious, man.I think it is a perspective that all of us should take into consideration.The free fall without any hope of turning back,gives you thrills.

    Watch the movie!

    at first sigh, a kind of Macbeth. in fact, only a work of Ioan Slavici adaptation , a remarkable cast and an extraordinary director. a memorable film about metamorphose of a good poor man. ambition, love, hate, desire of money and power. and Constantin Codrescu as best option for Giță role. after years, it remains one of great Romanian movies of all times. construction of atmosphere, the use of light, the realism of characters choices and actions, Geo Barton as impressive Lică Sămădău and the nuances of performance of Ioana Bulcă. images as ash pictures and the beauty of music. and, something more. a testimony about a period art and a testimony about nuanced adaptation.
