"Morometii" is a very good dramatization of Marin Preda's novel, depicting the life of a typical peasant family in rural Romania during the late 1940's.
The "film noir" image is not for everyone, but I find that it depicts perfectly the dark times the family was going through. It is also in line with the prequel "Morometii 1978" which was also shot in black&white for the same reason.
The actors are some of the best Romania has ever produced, acting is incredible and the storyline very very good. Highly recommended!
