Tedfoldol everything you have heard about this movie is true.

Ogosmith Each character in this movie — down to the smallest one — is an individual rather than a type, prone to spontaneous changes of mood and sometimes amusing outbursts of pettiness or ill humor.

Ezmae Chang This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.

Quiet Muffin This movie tries so hard to be funny, yet it falls flat every time. Just another example of recycled ideas repackaged with women in an attempt to appeal to a certain audience.

Kirpianuscus one of many stories from East. same subject, same evolution. the bitter sadness, the angry and the people as parts of a social machine. Crulic is, not doubt, a masterpiece. for its precise diagnosis of a large phenomenon. for the impeccable art. for the wise manner to ignore comfortable clichés. for the cold atmosphere. for the remind of truth. for the science to give to it the right form. a film about a man. like too many others in same situation. a man in a foreign country. accused in arbitrary way. his revolt. his fight. bureaucracy. and the end who puts all in an ice light. Crulic is one of films who must be rediscover time by time. for understand the other. for understand again, in better manner, the life. for not ignore the insignificant people. and, maybe, for hope.

JayCee00 This fantastic documentary tells the story of Claudiu Crulic, a 33 yr old Romanian wrongfully accused of stealing the wallet of a Polish judge and his experience on hunger strike while imprisoned as an act of his innocents and demand for help from the Romanian consul that never comes. Told by Crulic, from beyond the grave, he recounts his life story up to his death with details on how he was in Italy at the time of the crime in Poland, his experience while on hunger strike and how prison doctors and the Romanian consul did nothing for his case nor well-being. A case that slipped through the prison cracks. To make it further infuriating, prison doctors claimed he was fine almost up to the very end when he is so emaciated he looked like a 70 yr old man instead of the youthful 33 yr old he was just a couple months prior. By the time prison doctors finally sent him to a hospital, he was so deteriorated his body was beyond medical repair and slowing dying. After his death receives international attention, all authorities and doctors involved denied responsibility and eventually let to the resignation of Romanian foreign minister. Though the film could be slow at times, it is brilliantly and powerfully depicted through various animation techniques of hand-drawn animation, cutouts from photographs, scanned documents, projection, stop motion and digital 3D that manages to hold the viewers attention and keeps them intrigued throughout.

selcak83 I've seen the movie at Istanbul Film Festival. Excellent artwork, pathetic story. Roman workers problematic is familiar for us. We can understand the story very well. In this story you can easily feel Roman workers situation. Artwork is very impressive and has different style. This story reminded me "Waltz with Bashir" Very impressive story about human rights. Director told a powerful story thanks to animation. With real scenes it can be difficult to catch this power. I have seen the movie in a big movie hall. After the movie audience applauded the movie and director. We look forward seeing the team's new animations and artworks. Congratulations.!!!

Armand a poor man. his story. gray. basic. common.nothing special. an ordinary Romanian. a way to Poland. and lines of hell.scapegoat for a theft. ambiguous evidences Kafkaesque justice. blind doctors. deaf consul. and hunger strike as only weapon. from Krakow cell to death. a tragedy like many others. tragedy of a crumb-person isolated by the indifference. story of Claudiu Crulic. 32 years. from Central Europe. victim. obstacle for a Foreign Minister, subject of news and axis for few late investigations. a man like a fly or spider or chicken. without price, without importance. only a shadows. the movie is not a pledge, not a documentary. it is a tale. common. gray. subtle. with slices of black humor. testimony about passing of a man in life. the verdict can be given only by the public. a isolated case ? an accident ? a murder ? a fact ? must see it ! for its virtue of good film. for its virtue of mirror.
