| Summary |
Romeo Aldea is a frustrated and unfulfilled middle-aged doctor living in a small mountain town plagued by corruption. He wants a better life for his gifted daughter Eliza, raising her to believe that she will leave her home behind to go to university abroad, and live the life he always wished for himself. His plan is close to succeeding - Eliza has won a scholarship to study psychology at Oxford in the UK, but she has to pass her final exams - a formality for such a good student.. However, the day before her first exam, Eliza is assaulted in an attack that could jeopardise her entire future. Now Romeo - a man of strong principles - has to make a decision. There are ways of solving the situation, but none of them use the values he has instilled in his daughter.. Winner of Best Director and nominated for the Palme d'Or at the Cannes Film Festival. Nominated for Best Foreign Film at the César Awards. Official Selection at Telluride Film Festival and the Toronto International Film Festival.. "GRADUATION resonates not just as a vivid portrait of a culture at a particular moment in time, but also of the most enduring and confounding contradictions of human nature itself." - Ann Hornaday, Washington Post |
