Do Not Expect Too Much From the End of the World
A maddeningly radical…brilliant two-hour-and-43-minute Godard–meets–Harmony Korine Romanian masterpiece. — John Waters, Vulture
The film further confirms Radu Jude as one of the most idiosyncratic, uncompromising, and intellectually vigorous of living filmmakers. — Seth Katz, Slant Magazine
From Golden Bear winner Radu Jude, Do Not Expect Too Much From the End of the World takes a fierce and darkly comic swipe at modern day life. Overworked and underpaid production assistant Angela (Ilinca Manolache) is assigned to film a workplace safety video for a multinational corporation in Bucharest. When one of the interviewees makes a statement that ignites a scandal, Angela has to re-invent the story. Featuring appearances from Nina Hoss, Uwe Boll, and Angela’s TikTok alter-ego Bobiță, Jude’s anarchic satire is a wild and unforgettable ride through the vulgar indignities of the 21st century.
