Silent Wedding Page #3

Synopsis: An enigmatic, so-called Mayor of a deserted village somewhere in Romania, commissions a small film crew specialized in documenting unexplained paranormal events, to make a brief documentary on his village, before the next elections. On their way to the place, the friendly and light-hearted atmosphere, gradually started giving its place to a more serious one, as strange sightings of women dressed in black appearing from the ruins, paired with an eerie apparition of a woman in white, began to manifest. What had happened to this once peaceful and colorful village, with its happy and down-to-earth inhabitants? Did it have something to do with the event of Stalin's death, when a seven-day international mourning was declared, strictly forbidding all popular events? Is the Mayor hiding something and what is his link to the village's past?

the wedding party in the yard.

The wedding is starting!

Gypsy man, you son of a b*tch,

make the pig sing!

My in-law, godfather,

come on!

What's going on Gogonea?

Good day, Comrades.

F*** off!

What's going on?

This is comrade Pastaie Dumitru,

from the city.

The gentleman

is Captain Vladimir Boz...

Biz...

Bezimienyi.

Right.

Political Officer

of the Fourth Division.

Representative

of the Great General Staff.

Gogonea...

...if you came to show us

how stupid you are...

...we knew already!

If you want to drink

with us...

...since you're also

a drunkard...

...bring your friends

and join us.

Perhaps you are unaware,

but our Father...

...losif Vissarionovich Stalin...

...passed away last night.

God bless him!

The Great Council has declared

seven days of International Mourning.

Therefore, apart from

mourning gatherings...

...all popular events

are strictly forbidden.

The national flag

shall be at half-mast.

It shall be what?

At half past...

Those who do not

adhere to this decree...

...will be charged with high treason.

Gogonea...

Comrade... I forgot...

Pastaie.

Please help us!

There are relatives

who come from far.

This is a wedding!

There is meat.

We sacrificed four pigs,

two calves...

Meat in aspic, stuffed cabbages...

Everything will be rotten

in a week!

No exception!

Any manifestation that could distract

the Romanian people...

...from the gratitude owed to the Father

of all Peoples is strictly forbidden.

No laughing...

...no football matches...

...no weddings...

...no funerals.

Did you hear that?

Everything is forbidden.

What do you mean

no funerals?

Comrade Stalin

won't have a funeral?

You have one hour to

leave this place!

Best wishes!

Best wishes to you!

Best wishes to you!

Breast kisses to chew!

Breast kisses to chew!

Smell fishes f*** you!

It's mis-shapen too!

It's mis-shapen too!

Thanks and

the same to you too!

Thanks and

the shame's on you!

That end's the shame

for you!

That end I'll take

for you!

That and I'll fake it for you!

Flat out and f***ing her too!

Flat out and f***ing her too!

Far out and licking

her tooth!

Fair play and

good luck to you two!

Squadron, Halt!

What is great and powerful?

The Working Class!

This is a wedding,

God damn it!

See if there's

anyone left!

See if there's

anyone left!

Get them all.

Hurry up, we're leaving!

Come on! Faster!

We're leaving!

Freeze!

See if there's anyone left.

Get them all!

We're leaving!

My father was shot

the next day.

And so, I was the only man left

in a village of widows.

Are we ready?

Paramedia. Silent Wedding,

first take!

As usual...

...we find ourselves

in a strange place.

Cut!

Again!

It's filming!

Ladies and gentlemen.

As usual, we find ourselves

in a strange place.

There was a village

here before...

...it was swept off

by the communists.

This factory was built

in its place.

But it's not the factory

that interests us.

We want to uncover

the story behind...

...the disappearance of this village.

We've come here to meet

a stranger to us.

A woman, a lady.

We would like to ask you

a few questions.

We would like to ask you

a few questions.

I can't hear you, son!

We'd like to get some information.

What else can you take from us?

Some information about...

Cut.

No, don't.

We'd like some information

about...
