Dr. Spittler has made his profession his life's work. Unflinching and unfailing, the neuropsychiatrist visits, questions and advises people who want him to issue a crucial document, certifying in his expert opinion that they can end their lives voluntarily and with medical supervision. In GREEN LIGHT, Pavel Cuzuioc doesn‘t take a position on assisted suicide; he‘s interested in the personality of this convinced loner and his everyday life, which is dominated by ultimate questions and the enormous burden of responsibility.
 

Pavel Cuzuioc travelled through Romania, Bulgaria, Moldova and the Ukraine, accompanying telecommunications technicians on fieldwork as they went about their task of connecting people with one another and with the world by means of cables and sockets. The working journeys from door to door become voyages of discovery from microcosm to microcosm, and PLEASE HOLD THE LINE emerges as a witty and enigmatic essay about the human yearning for connection, failure of communication and existence in a wait loop.
