TOMORROW'S SHIFT

Homage

In the late 1950s the Communist government of Romania initiated an extensive industrialization campaign. TOMORROW’S SHIFT, produced at the Documentary Film Institute in Bucharest, focuses on three exemplary case studies from the young generation in order to illustrate the social change brought about by industrialization. Following the political directives with regard to its content, the film is nevertheless characterized by expressive images and a fine understanding of technical details.
