Est - Dittatura Last Minute

An independent film, shot largely in Romania, that gives a glimpse into what life must have been like in Eastern Europe before the fall of the Berlin Wall. It was definitely made with limited resources, but that doesn't make it appear poor. Both the direction and acting are good, and I particularly enjoyed the cinematography and editing. At times, it seemed naive, but perhaps that was true of the three friends who embarked on the journey. Being based on a true story, I trust in the sincerity and unawareness of the protagonists. The end credits were interesting, featuring original photos and footage.
