      What did a fire burn?

      At the Berlin Film Festival earlier this year, Romanian director Radu Jude's large-scale controversial work won the Golden Bear Award in one fell swoop, and at the Oscars that ended last month, there was also a Roman film with great splendor, which was also shortlisted for the best international film. And the two categories of best documentary feature film, although they lost one after...

      a very sensitive topic

      Romania's long-form documentary "The Collective," nominated for both Best International Film and Best Documentary at the Oscars, is another very sensitive topic, reflecting the 2015 fire in a Koletsev bar that killed 27 people, and 37 later. burn patients died of postoperative infection. It exposed the backwardness and corruption of the Romanian medical system, as well as the chaos of government management and unknown power and money transactions. At least two problems can be...

      The collective unconscious is still the biggest obstacle to the democratic revolution!

      Compared with the government's lies, corruption, greed and incompetence, I thought the government's naked massacre of people through medical corruption was appalling, but I didn't expect that behind the government's efforts to find the truth and expose the government, it was the people who faced the truth and justice. Indifference, those who call for equality and justice are always the very few, but the indifferent majority still don't care about it. Living in such a country is a big fear in...

      A good documentary showing the process of healthcare reform

      The treatment after a fire turned Romania's medical system into the first fig leaf to uncover corruption in the entire country. As a documentary, it presents the whole process of the medical investigation. Since the disinfectant used in the investigation hospital was diluted 10 times, the selection of disinfectant by the entire Ministry of Health became the first starting point of the investigation. There is an interesting point here about the “dilution” of public funds by...

      "Diluted" Humanity

      The patient's face was covered by a white sheet, and the two were squeezed into the same bed...

      Being able to film this documentary is a good start. Although the process is difficult and even the result is hopeless, it can still leave a mark on people's hearts. Maybe all we can do is not forget it. How to solve the current situation of system corruption Woolen...

      This systemic incompetence is the most incapacitating. When corruption is not an exception, but the norm, how can an idealistic health minister alone turn things around? You see, the Social Democrats, who resigned because of the scandal, won...

      The live-action version is focused, edited and filmed with precision (and drama, but not very provocative). The overall atmosphere is very stable. What my dad said at the end was really embarrassing. And Romania is really too similar to China. There is no sense of incongruity when linking Mungi's film with this...
