Romania, 1937. Emanuel, 20-years old, is tied to the bed at a sanatorium on the Black Sea coast, suffering from bone tuberculosis.
“Loosely based on the autobiographical writings of Jewish Romanian author Max Blecher, poetic excerpts of which appear onscreen as intertitles, punctuating the scenes (e.g., ‘Darkness lay around us like thick wine’), Radu Jude’s eerily gorgeous INIMI CICATRIZATE uses Emanuel’s immobility to develop a melancholic master class in mise en scène. For his second consecutive period piece. Jude shoots on 35mm film with a mostly immobile camera and in the Academy ratio, luxuriating in the rich details of the sanatorium, and exploring the plasterized Lothario’s realization of his own mortality.” (Mark Peranson)
