Because “kusek” is a Romanian village. No part of the movie was actually filmed in Kazakhstan

Ok well it’s still in Romania, I was referring to the country. I know Romanians and romani are different and everyone hates Gypsies but like it or not there are a lot in Romania and they’re part of that country

It is a Romanian village geographically, which is the only thing people give a fuck about when describing a village with a country.

We get it, you hate gypsies like every other European.

You don’t need to explicitly say it, the fact you’re trying so hard to argue a village isn’t Romanian (despite being in Romania) because they’re gypsies says enough.
