POLICE, ADJECTIVE
March 12 - 18
Directed by Corneliu Porumboiu(Romania)

One of the most critically-acclaimed films of the year and a double prize-winner at Cannes, this whip-smart, dryly funny comedy is the story of Cristi (Dragos Bucur), a young undercover cop who undergoes a crisis of conscience when he is pressured to arrest a teenager who offers hash to classmates. Not wanting to ruin the life of a young man he considers merely irresponsible, Cristi must either allow the arrest to burden his conscience, or face censure by his self-serious superior (Vlad Ivanov), for whom the word conscience has an entirely different meaning.
