Between Silence and Sin
Director:
Diana Nicolae
To one of the world’s most brutal dictatorial regimes, poetry represented the last molecules of freedom and the poets who dared to speak the truth became icons – and enemies of the Romanian Communist state. Ana Blandiana, one of Europe’s most important yet overlooked poets, is a symbol in the fight for democracy and freedom of speech, values that are again under threat around the world. A history reflected in poetry, Between Silence and Sin explores the power of the word as the last bastion of a nation’s collective soul in the face of oppression.
