California Dreamin - Cristian Nemescu (In memory of)

[Vlad]

A great movie made in 2006.

Unfinished, because the director died in a tragic traffic accident in the same year.

It was released however, in June of 2007.

I'm in Romania, I guess
—Captain Jones (Armand Assante)


The plot is based on a true story: in 1999, during the NATO bombing of Yugoslavia, a train containing American radar equipment, guarded by a small troop of American and Polish sodiers, required in Kosovo goes through Romania and is stopped for several days in a small village in the Baragan Plain (in the movie, the village of Capâlnita) because some customs papers are missing, even if the train has been authorised to pass through Romania by the Prime Minister.

Enjoy the above link. Awesome, indeed.

A most recent Romanian movie, honored all over the world, yet discarded/disregarded by US, still.

Typical Hollywood turf protecting attitude.
