Title

The Thistles of The Bărăgan

Taglines

Overview

Rumania's entry in the 1958 Cannes Film Festival was the excessively melodramatic Ciulinii Bărăganului. The title translates as Fools of Bărăgan, in reference to a band of beleaguered feudal Rumanian peasants. But these are no fools: instead, they are fearless freedom fighters, organizing a brave (though foredoomed) revolt against the tyranny of the landowners. The parallels drawn between the people of Bărăgan and Russia's revolutionary leaders are all but impossible to miss. It would have been nice, however, if the story had not been told in such a heavy-handed, spell-it-all-out fashion.

Overview

После смерти матери маленький Матаке вместе с отцом покидает родную деревню и отправляется в поисках лучшей доли в столицу. Но его странствие через бесплодную Бэрэганскую степь обрывается после смерти отца. Мальчика подбирают сердобольные жители деревни, обрабатывающие кукурузные поля, принадлежащие помещику Урсу. Бесчеловечное обращение хозяина, голод и жестокость жандармов толкают крестьян на бунт.
