Sergio Dahbar comments in his column of April 23 the epic of the Romanian people in silent rejection of the repressive totalitarianism Balkan Stalinism in the Latin country in Eastern Europe, referring to the documentary presented by Nestflix which tells how since 1985, a number each increasing clandestine viewers Bucharest, Brasov, Timisoara, Constanta, risked to move fictitiously outside Romania in their aspirations to achieve freedom.
in a tiny room crammed with spectators in an apartment any, is they gave tryst professionals from different formations, elderly, youth, children to escape the nightmare of a regime that eternal believed. Each of those viewers turned their dreams by giving freedom to use their idle TVs. The “dignified” of “communist paradise” who were not allowed to protest, could not forbid them to dream. So they risked: they were tired of witnessing the cult of personality and false wonders Ceauseuscu trumpeted by the single channel transmitted by the totalitarian regime of the State. It was also the way to avoid such propaganda and many lies transmitted for two hours daily monotonous and repetitive. They preferred to risk and use your TV to unleash the magic of VHS- and forget the suffering of the endless lines of poor wages, inadequate housing, collapsed medical, hardships shortages, rationing of electricity, and many other accumulated by a “failed and useless revolution” in the movies limitations the voice of the translator Irina Nestor translating all actors with a single monotonous voice was heard, but they sounded to glory, as viewers were transported with courage against the red dragon facing brave heroes like Rocky or Rambo or corruption fighters like Jean Claude Van Damme or Chuck Norris. Thousands of movies were played over and other time while the dreaded Securitate, raided the apartments to take the video-recorders and pirated movies to join them as well, to the delight of the late twentieth century without recording to his superiors devices “expropriated “. But the story does not end there. A few years later, again it is the Romanian Television that broadcasts live and live the courage of the protesters who were able to face the biggest repressive apparatus of the countries of the Warsaw Pact disowned in the Plaza Unirea dictator Nicolas and his wife Helena. The slaughter caused the military and police forces to unite the people, segudio by the tragic trial that sentenced him to the maximum penalty, being broadcast on Radio and Romanian Television.
The formation of the Provisional Government of Salvation national selected as initial host the meetings of exiles, former political prisoners and marginalized Communist Party leaders at the headquarters of the Romanian Television that was dedicated to transmitting endlessly a cascade of interventions of the new leaders. There paraded the most divergent political: Ion Iliescu, Petre Roman, Radu Campeanu, Coposu, Mazili. They were the actors who staged the historical stage when television COLLAPSED TO COMMUNISM.
