An evocative documentary - General Constantin Christescu

Summary/Abstract: In this article, starting from a critical event in Romania's history, the participation to the World War I, we proposed to design a scenario based on sound scientific research to capture less known characters and situations. In the tragedy of the huge human loss that represented the first world conflagration, we often lose sight of people's faces; among the scores of thousands of deaths the figures are blurred, vague, often barely sketched. We have a minority of personalities who have undoubtedly marked this period, but beyond them there are people, some of them key characters in a certain context, whom posterity unjustly forgot. Trying a different approach to history from an artistic perspective, we chose a name and a situation that can surprise human nature with defects, qualities, fulfilments and disillusionments, all against the background of an event with a strong emotional charge.
