  • "60 year-old Cornelia lives a life of privilege, social power and material wealthm but life is not perfect. More than anything in the world, she longs for her adult son, Barbu, to reciprocate her affections... The balance of power irrevocably shifts when Barbu is involved in a tragic car accident and runs down a child on a highway. Cornelia is thrust back into his life and, seeing her chance to regain control, she commences a frighteningly well-orchestrated campaign to save her son from prison."
  • "A well-to-do Bucharest architect is determined to keep her deadbeat son out of jail after a deadly car crash. How far will she go to convince the police, eyewitnesses, and even the victim's family that her son was not recklessly speeding? A spellbinding drama of social commentary and psychological realism, this caustic look into the corrupt heart of the Eastern European bourgeoisie twists into a brilliantly ambiguous study of obsessive motherly love."
  • "Seeing a way to reassert control over her adult son's life when he faces manslaughter charges, an affluent Romanian woman sets out on a campaign of emotional and social manipulation to keep him out of prison, navigating the waters of power, corruption and influence. Child's Pose is based on the sense of loss of parents who have to send their children away-physically and psychologically. The parent-child relationship is re-assessed through a son in his 30s that wants to escape from his mother, who in turn wants to keep her adult son by her side. The mother's character is quite familiar, but this film is unique in that the director delicately portrays how the controlling mother wants to deny that her son is destined to leave her by following the characters' emotional flows and gazing at their twisted desires. Luminita Gheorghiu turns in an extraordinary performance in playing a mother struggling to "save" her son. Heading to the conclusion, the film shows that the unhealthy mother-son relationship is not that simple when it comes to matters of humane duty."
  • "Cornelia ha sessant'anni, un marito di cui ha scarsa stima e un figlio, Barbu, di 34 anni che convive con una donna divorziata. Cornelia vorrebbe che Barbu continuasse a comportarsi come il bambino di un tempo ascoltando i suoi consigli e mettendoli in pratica. Il figlio la evita più che può fino a quando un giorno investe ed uccide con la sua auto un bambino. Cornelia decide di prendere in mano la situazione per evitare al figlio la galera (Mymovies)."
