We all look for a safe place – a home we can fill with security and affection, a pocket universe made of family, friends, and whatever gives our lives meaning. In Cecilia Ștefănescu’s feature debut, her characters have no such ground to stand on. A Safe Place – a title that lands with both irony and pain – is an X-ray of overwhelming solitude, an exploration of an inner world collapsing under the weight of crushed hopes and a sadness that can’t be mended, far beyond the frame of a conventional family drama.
