Lemonade
It is a collection of drama about Mara, a young Romanian woman who decided to immigrate to the United States with her nine-year-old son Dragus. Things may be bad in these different countries when Mara undergoes a series of scout meetings within one day. The daily problems start with Mara's problems in babysitting, her meeting with the US immigration official, and the bank she deals with in order to get a loan with her husband. Things get complicated in a short time.
