    the first surprise - it is an alive film. the dialogues, the problems, the relation between characters are realistic and each becomes useful trait for define the making of modern Romania in the fight of ideas of 1848 Valachian Revolution. than, it do not propose lessons. only it defines a historical episode with precise care for recreate the atmosphere and the portraits of the characters. the film has the great gift to not propose heroes or statues, bad guys or sinners. only men and theirs ideas and gestures and desire to change the reality in a better direction. the script by Petre Sălcudeanu ignores easy solutions. it propose a way to understand and define the conflicts between political visions and the causes of each group. Constantin Codrescu does an inspired Heliade Rădulescu in middle of a world in change and Cornel Ciupercescu seems be the most inspired interpreter of Bălcescu. a film who could be useful for discover the roots of contemporary Romania.
