It's Christmas Eve in a small mountain train station and no train is coming since all the tracks are blocked with snow. Four people are waiting for a train that doesn't show up. They don't know each other, how long it's going to take or if they will ever reach their destinations. But as the hours pass, Madalina, Cristi, Ozana, Alex share the absurd, the despair and the hope. Because they are accidentally stuck here. Because no one knows when it will end. And because it's Christmas.

这个时代旅行已变得毫无紧张和兴奋，坐飞机就如同乘公交一样。这种文化下是凡阳光下都能找到容身之地。《不管怎么样》这部电影讲述了一个40岁女人的疏远状态。 现在我们处在费莉西亚离别的那天（在布加勒斯特她每年两周地回家探亲之后）：费莉西亚很晚才开始收拾行李，母亲为她准备了精致的早餐，父亲也担心下一年不能再见到女儿了。 当费莉西亚在重新预订机票时，她面临着两个家庭的尴尬处境（她的前夫希望她按时回去，去夏令营接他们的孩子；而费莉西亚的父亲和姐姐又努力帮她，但他们的帮助方式真令人奇怪）。所有这一切以及费莉西亚和母亲中断的沟通，都慢慢揭示了费莉西亚远离家人19年之久所遭受的折磨。这明显是关乎爱、无以言表的感情及权力游戏和边缘。 为了在许多选择中决定，费莉西亚必须要飞回去，在她的预算、舒服感及对儿子的责任、她的时间和没有说出口的呆在家一天的愿望这些中间找到平衡。
