Perfectly Healthy
28 November 2023
According to me the actors provide a very good performance!

The last two weeks of my life I've experienced the rather sudden deaths of three loved ones.

Given these recent events, I apparently stood more open than usual for feelings & emotions that are extremely loud if one is confronted with death such as Andrei (one of the main characters).

But, most of the times during this movie, these feelings & emotions are conveyed in silence.

The fact that I opened, hopefully makes me "perfectly healthy", just like the characters in this story, and guessing that "perfectly healthy is a correct translation in English of "perfect sãnãtos".

Still, I think there might be a big difference between Dutch culture and Romanian culture.

I wouldn't be surprised that the average Romanian is much less of an extrovert and direct, than the average native Dutch person.

I do wonder though, whether this also applies to "ordinary situations" such as loosing loved ones, that are most probably pretty emotional in any culture. In Dutch culture people turn silent and into themselves as well in those situations.

Anyway, while watching this movie, I felt a comforting pain, where in the end the comfort exceeded the pain into a sense of purification; hence, perfectly healthy.

I hope you'll experience something similar.

So, if you're in need for such an experience, take your time to watch this move and ... be open and patient.
