Philanthropy (Filantropica) 22 years old

The extended hand that does not tell a story does not receive alms.

Philanthropy

In 21st century Bucharest, to go out in the city on Saturday evening at the arm of a beautiful woman is a risky financial investment. Ovidiu, an unassuming high school teacher, never could afford it. Looking for a source of income more substantial than a teacher's salary, Ovidiu plunges into a fabulous world - the beggar mob.
