I cannot be objective with Tony Gatlif's films. Omnipresence of my favourite types of music, omnipresence of dance. His stories could be rubbish every time, I wouldn't mind. In the case of "Transylvania" you can add the surreal craziness of Eastern Europe (craziness only because it doesn't fit our cultural schemas) and the mental character played by an amazing Asia Argento which both make of this particular Gatlif's opus something very "Emir-Kusturician". So though the story by itself is not fundamentally good (or at least is just another love story), "Transylvania" is a great piece of surrealism and Eastern European music.
