The New Year That Never Came (Luxfilmfest)
Bogdan MURESANU, 138 min, 2024 - Romania, Serbia
December 20, 1989. Romania is on the brink of revolution. Authorities are preparing New Year's festivities as if nothing is amiss, yet the official facade starts to crack. Amidst the fervor of unrest, six destinies intersect over an extraordinary day, leading to the fall of Ceaușescu and his regime. By developing six distinct characters, from diverse backgrounds and occupations, within the same timeline, Bogdan Mureșanu's debut feature cleverly approaches a key moment in Romanian history. On the eve of the revolution in 1989, the tension intensifies in ways both fierce and strangely comical, subtly narrating the political urgency Romania faces today.
