36/10
Is an extraordinary movie that captures the essence of the late 1989, just before the Romanian Revolution
Synopsis
On the brink of revolution in 1989 Romania, six lives intersect amid protests and personal struggles, leading to the explosive fall of Ceausescu and the communist regime..
The story follows the lives of people living under Ceausescu’s regime, just one day before the events that would change the course of Romania’s history
The film accurately portrays the tension, fear, and uncertainty that gripped everyone during that time.I was only 6 years old when the Revolution happened, but many scenes in the movie brought back memories of that era.
I can say that the movie conveys a deep and clear message, especially for those who lived through those times
Although I didn’t fully understand everything back then, I remember the dramatic atmosphere and the feeling of unease everywhere around me.While the beginning may feel a bit slow, which is often the case with Romanian films, the ending is powerful and unforgettable.
