A potent, poetic vision of adolescence, Anishoara charts four seasons in the life of a Moldovan village girl on the verge of adulthood. Director Ana-Felicia Scutelnicu continues the story begun in her award-winning 2012 film Panahida, following the titular protagonist as she experiences the onset of first love and the predations of the world beyond her idyllic upbringing. Stark and striking, the film brings new clarity to the coming-of-age genre.
