Corneliu Porumbolu. 89 mins. Cert 15. Subtitled

In a small Romanian town on the 16th anniversary of the revolution, the owner of a shoddy local TV station is frantically searching for guests to take part in a show about the town's involvement in the revolution.

With a second half that unfolds in real time as a hilariously shambolic talk show, this engaging black comedy paints a farcical picture of the controversial revolution, asking not only 'did it happen here?' but, more importantly, 'what difference did it make?'

 

"Beautifully observed and very funny, this film is a real treat." The Times

 

This evening's screening will be followed by a post show discussion with Patrick Bliss.

7.30pm (doors open 6.30pm)
