Film

Film

2013’s Romanian Cinematheque series ends with the screening of an unsettling drama -“Fox-Hunter” (“Vulpe-vânător”), one of the first Romanian feature films portraying life under terror during CeauÅŸescu’s dictatorship. The screening is part of "Repression and Exile, Remembering the Fall of Communism in Romania", an event that looks back on the dark days of the Revolution of 1989.  

Literature

Literature

On the night of 16 December 1989, Romanian history was written in blood as the first protests against the dictatorial regime broke out in TimiÅŸoara. Twenty four years later, we remember the Revolution of 1989 with Mariana Gordan’s newly published book “State Property”, alongside one of the first Romanian feature films portraying life under terror, Stere Gulea’s disturbing “Fox-Hunter”(1993).
