The region is under German occupation and local partisans are fighting a brutal resistance campaign. A train is derailed not far from the village, where Sushenya, a rail worker, lives with his family. Innocent Sushenya is arrested with a group of saboteurs, but the German officer makes a decision not to hang him with the others and sets him free. Rumours of Sushenya’s treason spread quickly and partisans Burov and Voitik arrive from the forest to get revenge. As the partisans lead their victim through the forest, they are ambushed, and Sushenya finds himself one‐to‐one with his wounded enemy. Deep in an ancient forest, where there are neither friends nor enemies and where the line between treason and heroism disappears, Sushenya is forced to make a moral choice under immoral circumstances.

  • \JIC10R Reeengtlic - P�� � �
    \JIC10R REEENGtliC- P�� � � Oricât de puţin credibil ar putea părea acest lucru, mai cu seamă pentru obiş­ nuiţii sălilor de spectacol, la 10 februarie 2008, marele actor Victor Rebengiuc a împlinit 75 de ani. Drept pentru care două tinere comentatoare ale fenomenului teatral - le-am numit pe Simona Chiţan şi pe Mihaela Michailov - s-au gândit să-i ofere în dar Maestrului, omului căruia nu cred că există român care să nu-i cunoască numele, ori să nu-l fi văzut vreodată pe vreo scenă de teatru, în film,la televizor ori să nu-i fi auzit inconfundabilul glas la radio (de altfel, de ceva vreme Victor Rebengiuc e .. vocea" de identificare a canalului Radio România Cultural) o carte despre el însuşi. Ea se intitulează Vi ctor Rebengiuc - omul şi actorul şi a apărut în colecţia Convorbiri - Corespondenţe - Portrete a Editurii bucureştene Humanitas. Titlul volumului e simplu, aş zice, firesc şi, mai cu seamă, cinstit, aşa cum este şi protagonistul său, iar conţinutul cărţii nu dezminte cu niciun rând substanţa respectivului titlu. Calitate ce se cuvine evidenţiată ca atare. Coloana vertebrală a cărţii e reprezentată de un lung, consistent şi - ce e foarte important - deloc convenţional ori obositor interviupe care Victor Rebengiuc îl acordă celor două semnatare principale ale cărţii (spun semnatare principale, fiindcă, aşa cum se va vedea mai încolo, e de fapt vorba despre un volum mai degrabă colectiv). Interviuîn care Victor Rebengiuc îşi povesteşte viaţa cu o sim­ plitate şi o decenţă exemplare. E confesiunea unui om căruia nu i-au plăcut nicio­ dată nici minciuna, şi nici răsfăţul.

  • Scrisoare Deschisă Preşedintelui României, Traian BĂSESCU*
    *Scrisoare deschisă Preşedintelui României, Traian BĂSESCU* 10 decembrie 2008 Domnule Preşedinte, În urmă cu exact patru ani România beneficia de cel mai important moment pentru memoria şi conştiinţa sa colectivă de la evenimentele din 1989 încoace. Atunci, o alianţă în care puţini crezuseră că poate câştiga alegerile parlamentare, reuşea să redea românilor sentimentul libertăţii şi al demnităţii. Timp de patru ani, 2000 - 2004, în care cuvintele cele mai rostite fuseseră „corupţie" „frică", „şantaj", „izolare", românii s-au simţit înşelaţi şi persecutaţi. Intelectualii incomozi erau ridicaţi de pe stradă, justiţia era înfăptuită în sufrageriile baronilor roşii, membrii cabinetului făceau deliciul presei internaţionale prin delapidările de fonduri europene iar programul de la televizor era făcut îndeaproape după agenda lui Adrian Năstase. Domnule Preşedinte, Onoarea unei naţiuni stă şi în liderii pe care îi are. Atât în dezbatreile publice cât şi în discuţii particulare, mulţi dintre noi, cei care semnează acest apel, v-au arătat sprijinul. Condamnarea comunismului din decembrie 2006 a fost o confirmare reală a faptului că aşteptările noastre n-au fost înşelate. Milioanele de victime ale totalitarismului şi ale unei ideologii barbare au fost răzbunate într-unul din cele mai solide documente din istoria Europei cu privire la trecutul recent. Prima ţară de pe glob care a condamnat comunismul nu are voie să se mai abată de la principiile libertăţii, stabilităţii şi prosperităţii! Domnule Preşedinte, *Vă solicităm în mod expres să nu giraţi
