A day in the life of Romanian Angela Raducani [Ilinca Manolache], a production assistant for corporate films. She spends most of her working day in her car, rushing from one appointment to another. She takes out her frustration on other road users and on TikTok, where she knocks down all the sacred cows under the guise of satire – she compares herself to Charlie Hebdo – as 'Bobita'. She combats her fatigue with loud music and energy drinks. Cynical and ironic satire about the dark sides of capitalism. Angela and the other crew members are exploited by their employer to make a corporate film that essentially aims to combat accusations of exploitation. Ends with an uninterrupted take in which such a film is created. Ovidue Pîrsan (playing himself) explains to the camera what caused him to become paralyzed from the waist down after being in a coma for more than a year. But the company partly responsible for the accident is demanding that he change his words so as not to tarnish their brand name. The bitter tone can be repulsive, but anyone who bites through the sour apple will be presented with an intelligent satire. Jude interweaves images from Angela Goes On (1982), a Romanian film made during the communist regime, to sharpen the contrast with modern times. Manolache is phenomenal and there is a curious and memorable cameo from cult director Uwe Boll.
