Dezrădăcinații

Sophie, a French journalist, investigates a mysterious disappearance in Romania in the 1980s, sifting through testimonies and secrets for answers that have been decades in coming. She is drawn in turn into a web of ties built on absence, alongside Ana, Ana’s family and Lieutenant Sebastian Popa, who investigated the case. The forest of Govora, almost a character itself, absorbs and hides things and lends the story an aura of myth. The evil here belongs to no single person: it lies in the system, in what is left unsaid and above all in what is missing, as Ana’s disappearance becomes a torment for everyone else.
