They are opposite examples of the results of collectivization policy of the regime. The former was one of the sites of the fiercest resistence to communism and its idea of rural modernization. The latter was the native village of the Romanian dictator Nicolae Ceausescu, and became the flagship of his policies of systematization. Dissimilarities between these villages are expressive of the cleavages in Romanian society during post-communism. Despite different memories and remembrances of communism and its traumas, both villages are suffering from similar aftermath of the failed communist project of social engineering of the rural part of Romania. At the same time, the documentary is attempting to also link the the new challenges of the post-1989 period with the practices and legacies of communism. The documentary is based upon Alina-Mungiu Pippidi's book "A Tale of Two Villages". 655 4 Documentary films 260 Romania : |bBBC, |c2002. 041 eng |jeng 952 |00 |10 |40 |50 |70 |8FL |990745FL |bFL |d2016-11-25 |l0 |r2016-11-25 |w2016-11-25 |yVHS 920 01 2oW3b8ov 966 |cIn the Research Room
