lang="EN-US">Bucharest, capital
of Romania, is a city in rapid transition. In recent years the place
has
enjoyed an economic boom, which has been accelerated since joining the
EU in
2007.<o:p></o:p></span><span style="font-size: 11pt;" lang="EN-US"><o:p> </o:p></span>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 11pt;" lang="EN-US">During
the
Communist period, 1947–1989, hundreds of thousands of people were
arbitrarily
executed or imprisoned for political, economic and unknown reasons. It
is
estimated that, in total, the regime directly killed up to two million
people.<span style=""> </span>Nicolae Ceausescu was the leader
of Romania from 1965 until 1989, when a revolution and coup removed him
from
power. He and his wife were executed on 25th December, 1989. <o:p> </o:p><br>
</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 11pt;" lang="EN-US">This
video
comprises a series of static shots of the city, which run alongside
each other
to form a non linear looping narrative. As each shot progresses from
day to
night, young, professional Bucharestians talk about their feelings and
experiences of the city, it’s recent history and their memories of the
Communist regime. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
