Greetings. Perhaps someone could help me with this one. Within five years ago I watched a movie set in Romania with local and foreign actors about child trafficking, and the hero was an American ex special forces martial arts expert who lived in an apartment block, his neighbour being a woman and her daughter, who was no older than ten. The woman was mixed up with gangsters, and her little girl was kidnapped by them and dressed up like a prostitute for their purposes, so the American intervened to stop them. There were two Romanian cops investigating, the senior one, a man, turned out to be a crook, and was about to kill someone, so his partner, a very attractive dark haired woman, had to kill him. An Asian man was involved in buying some of the girls used by the gangsters, and he met them at some flash mansion somewhere. The movie is from two to ten years old, and I have seen some of the actors elsewhere, but I cannot recall - I even tried looking up every Romanian actress born from say the seventies onwards, but to no avail. If anyone has any ideas, they would be appreciated. Thank You. Chris the Russian Christopher Lilly 09:19, 5 July 2022 (UTC)
Around 1990 the support movie at our local cinema was called Friends, of which I can find no trace. The opening scene was a vast post-WWII German repository or archive, where an older man is searching for news of his pre-war friend. It then cuts to the story of two young college-age men: a Jew and a Junker-class Arian, close friends who reluctantly go their separate ways when the latter is called up.
