A humble Romanian actor in his 30s, hardly surviving between a complicated part in a musical, a depressed wife, and the obsession of an imminent, devastating earthquake, becomes the victim of his manipulative father.
Actor Romeo premieres as Orpheus in the earthquake rocked kingdom of Bucharest. As his unknown pilot father lands in his new palace with a parachute mistress attached, and his unemployed wife, Juliet gets depressed, he plans to leave their shaky marriage. Jealous Juliet leaves Romeo first and takes a step to welcoming Hades, but the smiling Devil on the stage grants the couple a second chance.—Bogdan Popescu
