Estudo bem-humorado sobre o “jeitinho” romeno, filme mostra a criatividade com que pessoas comuns desenvolvem esquemas para contornar os absurdos do cotidiano, como na época do regime de Nicolae Ceausescu (1918-1989). Uma fina ironia percorre seis episódios que baseiam-se em “lendas urbanas” do período que o governo comunista romeno definia como “a era do ouro”.
