This is the life story of Crulic, the 33-year-old Romanian who died in a Polish prison while on hunger strike. The acclaimed Romanian actor Vlad Ivanov narrates Crulic’s ironic voice-over from beyond the grave. A strong visual style, the result of beautiful hand-drawn, collage, stop-motion and cut-out animation techniques, blends to create a striking, surprisingly integrated and memorable film.
