The Happiest Girl in the World

Delia, a young girl from a small Romanian village, finds herself at the heart of big city life when she travels to Bucharest to claim her prize in a soft-drinks company contest. The exciting reward: a stunning new car. However, what Delia and her parents perceive as an opportunity for betterment differs starkly; while they view it as a chance for a better life, their desires clash with the sponsor's vision of a glowing brand ambassador.This wickedly satirical film delves into the complexities of societal pressures and our individual relationships to capitalism and consumerism. It presents a psychological portrait of an entire society seemingly enslaved by materialistic desires and societal norms, highlighting the disparities between what is deemed 'ideal' and the harsh reality of everyday life for many people. Delia's journey in this world becomes an exploration of her identity and values as she navigates conflicting expectations from her family, the contest sponsors, and herself.
