The middle sisters. 2017
Nadrag is a former mining area, in Timis county, Romania. In 1845 a Viennese company has developed iron processing workshops in the village, thus populating the area with colonies of Germans, Slovaks, Hungarians, Romanians and Gypsies. Mining was greatly expanded and Nadrag became a prosperous town.
Now everything has died, it remained only people nostalgic of the good old days long gone, people jobless, hopeless and with many mouths to feed.
The two sisters who are part of a family of 4 children living on the poverty line are like an emblem of this place with emotional problems and memory loss, fail to cope with the school to secure a better future and live from one day to the next without any purpose or target to head for.
They are the middle sisters protected by the older brother, but without any escape from that place.
