A documentary that immerses viewers in the world of Romanian craftsmanship through the Ie Românească, the traditional embroidered blouse. Recognised by UNESCO as Intangible Cultural Heritage, the Ie is more than a garment: it is wearable art, a living archive, and a powerful form of self-expression, feminine creativity, and cultural identity, passed down through generations.
Each blouse carries symbols that reflect the natural world, society, and socio-political changes over time. It is a tradition kept alive by women, connecting generations, preserving identity, and speaking of roots, resilience, and the lasting power of tradition in a rapidly changing world.
