• Fjord Review: Cristian Mungiu Turns a Family Dispute Into a Moral Rorschach Test

  

  In *Fjord*, Palme d’Or-winning filmmaker Cristian Mungiu turns a family’s child-rearing dispute into a provocative examination of faith, parental authority, and institutional bias. Starring Sebastian Stan and Renate Reinsve, this restrained, unsettling drama challenges audiences to question their own moral assumptions, asking where child protection ends and prejudice begins.
