Promisiuni is a character-driven comedy focusing on the disruption of familial structures. The narrative revolves around a young girl discovering her biological father and the ensuing interpersonal conflicts. While the film centers on a female protagonist, it adheres to a traditional dramatic structure typical of mid-1980s Romanian cinema. The film lacks clear evidence of characters who reflect more than one aspect of diversity or the subversion of traditional social hierarchies.
