Ce Lume Minunată

What a Wonderful World

2009, Republik Moldau: Petru, ein in Boston studierender Mittzwanziger, kehrt über die Ferien nach Chișinău zurück, wo er den kleinen Freuden seiner Heimatstadt frönt. Bei seinem Plausch mit einem lokalen Taxifahrer oder dem Telefonat mit seiner Freundin weiß Petru noch nicht, dass das Land vor gravierenden Umwälzungen steht: Nach unlauteren, gefälschten Wahlen erfährt die kommunistische Partei einen drastischen Aufschwung. Tausende Entrüstete schließen sich über soziale Netzwerke zusammen und ziehen durch die Straßen der moldauischen Hauptstadt. Durch einen Zufall findet sich Petru plötzlich mitten unter ihnen und gerät in die Fänge der Exekutive.

After two years spent as a student in Boston, a 22-year-old visits his home country Moldova. It is April 2009. People gather in the streets of Chisinau, the call has spread through social networks. They are demonstrating against the communist authorities who falsified the election results. They seize and plunder the parliament and presidential buildings. The demonstrators carry away documents, furniture and office equipment. Coming from a friend’s home carrying his own computer monitor, our protagonist is mistaken for a demonstrator. This marks the beginning of an unprecedented tour de force. (Warsaw Film Festival)
