The Autobiography of Nicolae Ceaușescu

On 25 December 1989, Romanian president Nicolae Ceaușescu was sentenced to death by a military court and shot. In a masterly assemblage using only archival, government-authorized lm material, director ANDREI UJICA traces Ceaușescu’s life in this three-hour documentary. This “autobiography” of the head of state, compiled from found footage, not only follows his rise and fall but also functions as a chronicle of the production of propaganda imagery in the late twentieth century.
