Gigi, Monica… et Bianca

Yasmina Abdellaoui
Benoît Dervaux
1996 Belgium 84 minutes Rumanian

Gigi and Monica are in love. They live with a gang of other street children in the district surrounding the Northern Station in Bucarest. It would be more to the point to say they survive, from day to day, doing small, poorly-paid jobs. They have learned to live with insecurity and marginalisation, yet enjoy their freedom with the carefree attitude of youth. Monica discovers she is pregnant and their already precarious existence takes a sharp turn.
