The story

What Is Aurora About?

The premise of Aurora without spoilers.

This gripping drama explores the motivations behind a violent act, rather than focusing on the perpetrator. Viorel, a divorced father of two, prepares for a life-altering decision, and the film delves into his psychological state as tension builds within the industrial outskirts of Bucharest. The narrative is interwoven with a haunting, modern retelling of the classic Little Red Riding Hood fairytale, adding layers of symbolism and suspense to this intense character study.
