New US Trailer for Radu Jude's 'Kontinental '25' Set in Transylvania

"You can't help everyone. Life is full of unforeseen stuff." 1-2 Special has revealed the full official US trailer for the wacky fun film Kontinental '25 made by Romanian maestro filmmaker Radu Jude. This initially premiered at the 2025 Berlin Film Festival one year ago (trailer from then) and will be out to watch in select US theaters starting this March after a year wait. The poster (also seen below) is a riff on the original poster for a film titled Europe '51 (aka Europa '51) directed by Roberto Rossellini and starring Ingrid Bergman. Kontinental '25 is described as a "twisted take on Rosellini's Europe '51" film - about a wealthy woman who becomes obsessed with humanitarianism when her young son dies from suicide. In Radu Jude's new take, Eszter Tompa stars as Orsolya, who is a a bailiff in Cluj, the main city in Transylvania. One day she must evict a homeless man who lives in the basement of a building. An unexpected event creates a moral crisis she tries to solve as best she can. The cast includes Gabriel Spahiu, Adonis Tanța, and Șerban Pavlu. For die-hard cinephiles only. It's very kooky & weird but Radu Jude is always on point with his commentary. // Continue Reading ›
