Alex and Cristina (Kiki) are university students who end up living in the same building. Their friendship develops quickly, overcoming several phases, from fellowship to care and tenderness. While the two are very different, the two girls get along fine, except for the moments when a third character shows up — Sandu. Kiki's brother is permanently tormented by an unnatural jealousy which implies an incestuous liaison between the two siblings.[2]
The film was adapted from a novel by Cecilia Stefanescu.[3]
It premiered at the 2006 Berlin International Film Festival as part of the Teddy Awards.[7] It went on to appear at a number of international film festivals including the Seattle International Film Festival[8] and the London Lesbian and Gay Film Festival.
