What is The Death of Mr. Lazarescu about?
The Death of Mr. Lazarescu is a Romanian drama film that tells the story of a lonely, ailing old man named Dante Remus Lazarescu who is shuttled between hospitals during a pandemic while doctors try to pinpoint his diagnosis. Despite his worsening condition, hospitals are reluctant to admit him due to their exhaustion from dealing with the pandemic and their prejudices towards his alcoholism. The film follows Lazarescu's journey through the night, highlighting the dehumanizing effects of the healthcare system on both patients and medical professionals. As his condition rapidly deteriorates, Lazarescu's only advocate is a determined paramedic named Mioara who stays by his side and fights for his admission into a hospital. Ultimately, Lazarescu is admitted to the fourth hospital he is taken to, and the film ends as the doctors prepare to perform an emergency operation to remove a blood clot in his brain.
