Uppercase Print
In 1981, chalk slogans written in uppercase letters started appearing in public spaces in the Romanian city of Botoşani. They demanded freedom, alluded to the democratic developments taking place in Romania’s socialist sister countries or simply called for improvements in the food supply. Mugur Călinescu was behind them, who was still at school at the time and whose case is documented in the files of the Romanian secret police. Theatre director Gianina Cărbunariu created a documentary play based on this material.
Pendant que les champs brûlent
A young mother with a son in stuck of an unhappy marriage dreams of starting another life, a stranger on the side of the road and a saddle from a bicycle and a fire going out somewhere.
