Director: Nicolae Margineanu | Produced In: 2003
Synopsis: A young intellectual woman, Nicole, is arrested in the years of Stalinism simply for being an active member of an opposition party. There follow three months of exhausting interrogation and isolation. Alone in a cell, she undergoes a spiritual experience similar to that of the great mystics. She proceeds to an in-depth soul-searching that helps her discover the power of faith and steels her to put up resistance. Nicole goes through the ordeal of communist prisons, conflicts and risky activities, and manages to provide a heartening example for the other inmates. Daily prison life is not drab, but full of unexpected happenings like a story. This is an extremely objective film that scans with warmth and sensitivity a woman's emotional testimony of faith.
