[Sheffield '23] Romanian director Vlad Petri draws a parallel between the 1980 Islamic revolution in Iran and the popular uprising in Romania in 1989, through a fictitious epistolary relationship between an Iranian woman and a young Romanian girl who studied together in Bucharest. The letters that are exchanged over the years show the hope of the beginning of both revolutions to end in disappointment and hopelessness, in a fictional story that surrounds reality through a montage of archival images that is remarkable and revealing.
