FILM SYNOPSIS
A rural Transylvanian town is plagued by xenophobia—and an unseen threat looming the forest.
After working abroad, Matthias returns to his bucolic Transylvanian village where his son, Rudi, has been scared speechless after encountering an unknown entity in the woods. Meanwhile, Matthias clashes with his estranged wife over raising their child with toxic masculinity, driving him to reunite with his former lover, Csilla. When Csilla hires three South Asian immigrant workers, the townsfolk’s racist fervour is ignited, spreading unforgivingly.
R.M.N. scans the communal psyche of a town steeped in xenophobic nationalism, revealing simmering cultural anxieties about an uncertain future. Mungiu expertly crafts a universally resonant story of human’s intolerance for the other, not as a warning, but as déjà vu.
