My father tried two times to cross the border (with his friend) during
communism, the first time being caught at the border with Yugoslavia and 2nd time being caught in Greece, sent back to Romania, and beaten and interrogated exactly like in the movie. Yesterday was a very special night since I assisted at a very special screening together with my father.
In the past years, I was disgusted with any subject related to communism since I hated so much the consequences supported by so many generations of Romanians. We still suffer because of this past dictator, even the ones born after the revolution.
Now I see the importance of going back 'there' to remind us not to repeat the same mistakes.
Very emotional film for the entire sold-out cinema hall... One of the best movies ever made after the Romanian Revolution (1989).
