His first film. A bit awkward and primitive but it did work on some levels as a coming-of-age piece in a constrictive communist regime. Helped by the lead actor who managed to be sympathetic and endearing in spite of the poor production values. His naive courtship of the titular stripper/prostitute was charming.
Many of the secondary characters were played by either non-actors or pros so untalented that it didn't matter. It rained a lot...which seemed fitting...like a comedic attempt to emulate Bela Tarr.
Curiosity value only.
