At the End of the Line

In 1919, young Doctor Poenaru is sent to be the director at a country hospital. On his way there he meets a formar army comrade, now a lawyer. An ideological and philosophical dispute ensues, the two following different paths in life.

Andrei, a lathe operator in Constanța shipyard and also a rugby team player, pendulates between two love interests. He also gets involved for a little while in some criminal activity. In the end decides to go to college to Galați, leaving all this behind.

A return in time. A look over the shoulder, with irony and humor. A story about a generation that could not guess in those years how close the "change" would be. A world controlled and subordinated to some iron rules that they had to accept in silence and resist, because they stubbornly wanted to live. It was their life and they wanted to live it.

Based on actual events which happened at the Radio Romania station in Bod-Brasov, during the beginning of the revolution for social liberation and for the country's national liberation, an anti-fascist and anti-imperialist revolution, on August 23, 1944.
