"Niki and Flo" is a fascinating stylistic hybrid, its observant naturalism infused with a delicate, almost coy sense of the absurd.
A.O. Scott, New York Times
Overview
In this very black comedy about ill-suited neighbors united by marriage, Niki is a former colonel in the Romanian army whose daughter is married to the son of Flo, an aging Bohemian who is full of schemes for the “new” Romania. As the young couple prepares to emigrate to the U.S., Niki is obliged to interact with Flo, whom he finds totally unbearable.
