If I Want To Whistle, I Whistle (2010)
The story of this 2010 Silver Bear Winner in Berlin Film Festival centers around Silviu, an 18-year-old about to be released from a juvenile detention center is pushed over the limit when his mother reappears to take his little younger brother with her at Italy. But Silviu blames his mother for his bad upbringing and takes desperate measures to stop her from doing that as he wants to save his brother from his own dissolute fate. Meanwhile, he finds himself in a 'special date' with a Sociology student, Ana, working in the penitentiary as an intern...under a hostage situation!
This subtle take on the young-man-in-prison genre from Romania perhaps like a
Slumdog Millionaire for the Romanian viewers as there are some comments at imdb for blaming it as a overrated, stereotype or nothing new for them. As I haven't been seen much of a Romanian film before so I find it pretty decent and kind of engrossing actually.

Road Kill (2010)

Pin: A Plastic Nightmare (1988)
Haven't heard of it much before but it's a beautiful low budget
Psycho-thriller. A well executed story treated by a nice cast and a great ending.
