Seller's Description:
Armand Assante, Razvan Vasilescu, Jamie Elman, Maria Dinulescu, Ion Sapdaru. Run time: 155 mins. Aspect ratio: 2.35: 1. Originally released: 2009. Factory Sealed Brand New DVD Romania, 1999: As the Kosovo conflict rages, a no-nonsense U.S. military officer (a career performance by Armand Assante) leads a platoon of Marines and a shipment of top-secret communications equipment toward a NATO outpost. But when a corrupt stationmaster halts their train, the soldiers find themselves the unexpected guests of an impoverished village filled with stubborn bureaucracy, beguiling young women, and odd pop culture celebrations. In a time of war, what hopes, dreams and resentments does the arrival of America truly bring to the world outside? Jamie Elman (American Dreams) and Ion Sapdaru (4 Months, 3 Weeks & 2 Days) co-star in the first-and only-film by award-winning 27-year-old Romanian writer/director Cristian Nemescu, tragically killed in a car crash shortly after completing one of the most internationally acclaimed socio-political satires of our time.
