Milk Teeth
is about a 10-year-old boy who embarks on a journey to find his missing shoe.“What this project enabled me to do as a scriptwriter was to write a screenplay in the vein of one of my favourite films, Kiarostami’s
Where Is The Friend’s House?,” Mincan explains. “I love to write, and sometimes I don’t think about thematic trends. I just start writing a story for the sheer pleasure of it.” It just so happened that both Radu and Paul loved the story.”
