    Vincent de Cointet,

    30 years after the fall of the Romanian dictator Ceausescu in 1989, we get a reconstruction of one of the most violent events during the fall of the communist regimes. The investigation exposes the gray areas of a coup d'état sparked by the ex-communist elites under the guise of a people's revolution. And zooms in on the role of the media in the mock trial and execution of Nicolae Ceausescu and his wife Elena.
