author and director Gianina Carbunariu

Gianina Cărbunariu is presenting a very interesting play that speaks trilingually about an event unknown to us in the Romanian town Targu Mures, mainly inhabited by ethnic Hungarians. In March 1990, an interethnic conflict between Romanians and Hungarians broke out, known as “The Black March.” There were victims on both sides, and there was never an official version of the event, the cause was never explained. The entire situation falls in the time of the interregnum after the fall of the Nicolae Ceausescu government, and this makes the story harder and crueler. The author of the text started from interviewing the real participants in the event, making a reconstruction of the story about the conflict that recalls what we experienced in the last twenty years with consequences we still feel today.
