Old Women from Omor

Kill, murder. This is what the Hungarian name of the village of Omor, 40 kilometers south of Timisoara, means in Romanian. It couldn’t be left that way, so they gave it a new name sometime in the past. Since then, it bears the name Rovinita Mare, but is still called Omor in Hungarian. Our documentary – as a kind of lyric “life-story sequence” – gives us a look into the lives of the (widowed) women of Omor and how their stories intermingle.
