It is 1989 in Romania, and the country is run by dictator and tyrant Nicolae Ceaușescu. I remember this time and all the reports of the atrocities that Ceaușescu allowed to happen to the Romanian people.
When 17-year-old Cristian Florescu is approached by the secret police to spy on the family of an American diplomat, he wants to refuse, but he knows that it will put his family in harm.
I could feel the tension and the conflict that this young man feels as he wrestles to be faithful to his family, without endangering them. I hope that he can find a way to outwit the secret police.
