After not being able to pass the entrance examination at the Polytechnic Faculty, Vali (Walter, in English), living in the city of Brasov, gets to be investigated by the police (then called The Militia) for complicity to different thefts. He wants to find an alibi and he figures that the best one would be provided by his father, now living in Bucharest, the capital city.
All good, but to get there he robes a motorcycle.
In Bucharest he gets to know a shop girl named Anisoara (pronounced Anishoara (Anny, in English)), whom he suggests an escapade by the seashore which she surprisingly agrees with. This goes to show how different were the people then. Nowadays, whom would react this spontaneous? But there is a saying: "Whom God would ruin, He first deprives of reason".
"The success of Timotei Ursu in "Septembrie" (meaning September) is that of making a gravely moment of truth from a beautiful love story, an acute exam of sincerity in front of life that does not forgive neither the young nor the old for their mistake. Natural and discreet, the director enveloped the load of moral signification and inherent consequences to each life gesture under the appearance of an innocent game." (1978, Adina Darian, critic).
If you have the opportunity to see this movie, don't hesitate. I guarantee you will love the story which in fact is a love story. And I'm not saying that only for the reason that this movie was made in my country. Just see it and believe it.
Or not! "De (dis)gustibus non disputandum!!!" as the ancient Romans once said.
:-)
Anyway, I'll give it a 9 out of 10.
