Portraits of women of the Romanian nation.

The powerful and devoted woman, reminding of Queen Mary of Romania, but also of portraits of mothers, lovers, mistresses, fighters. All these female typologies transit various stages, such as the memory of match-making, the memory of the fact that she is loved, but her lover parted, we witness the euphoric stages of our Săftița, who sells her soul to the devil, so as to forget the man who stole her dreams.

We do not forget about the ballads (doina) sung by all heroic Săftița’s of the Romanian people. The ballads of her husband leaving for war, the letters collected in the pouch, which she never dispatches, because the addressee has no address. She collects the strength in her fists to believe that her husband would return in the dawn.
