Summary |
Twenty years after the execution of communist dictator Nicolae Ceausescu, Romania has the appearance of a Western, capitalist democracy. However, behind the enticing commercial facade, the country has the lowest per capita income of all former Soviet states. Filmmaker Alexandru Solomon goes searching for the cause of this lopsided growth and interviews some of Romania's wealthiest capitalists, all of whom have strong roots both in the former regime and the current government. They aren't ashamed in the least; in the words of one, "You can't be successful unless you steal" |
