I like Sitaru's work a lot and I like it here (Domestic is better if you can see it, do it). I think I related to this movie so much more after I had to go to hospitals with my own mother. But the setup is pretty good and I liked the sort of surreal elements. Like the burn patient with the bunny mask.

nisan 12, ist film fest & Best Intentions, günümüz Romanya'sı üzerindn anneye bağlılığı & bu durumun yarattığı paranoyaya varan psikolojisni anlatıyor. Bu film ile yonetmen Adrian Sitaru ne kadar iyi bir yönetmen & hikaye anlatıcısı olduğunu ortaya koyuyor. Yine de Best Intentions, duygusunu bana yansıtamadı. bu sebeple de bence iyi anlatılmış bir hikayeden öteye gidemiyor.

The truth of the matter is that for everything modern medicine has figured out, much about life and death is still shrouded in mystery. With his mother hospitalized after a TIA, the way that Alex constantly second-guesses her doctor seems uptight to those around him, but is easily understandable and relatable. Sitaru is highly observant in dissecting the psychology of how different people deal with the incalculable risk that looms ever nearer as the human body ages.
