PRISON OF SAINTS

PRISON OF SAINTS
By Marina Rasnoveanu

GENRE: Drama
LOGLINE:

A young Romanian rebel wrongfully jailed under Communism must face torture and
an uncertain future; not knowing the unexpected guidance from peculiar fellow
inmates will expose the world’s resilience – faith.

SYNOPSIS:

In the battle against Communism, faith will emerge as the driving force.

A Romanian student activist for freedom, Petru, lives in limited circumstances

packed with everyday frustrations - the sad history of his relationship with

his late priest father, cryptic truths written in a red notebook revealing the

crimes of Communism, and an uncertain romance with a ballet dancer. Through

secret freedom parties, he dreams to escape to France and free Romanian people

from the oppression...

... But his unfair imprisonment stunts his noble mission.

Petru navigates brutal prison life and a violent Communist colonel who inflicts

despicable methods of torture to reeducate him and crush his girlfriend's

career. Struggling between the real and unreal, Petru learns the red notebook

holds the very crimes that will free him and all other free thinkers from the

oppression.

Will Petru anchor himself in faith and accept his fate or embrace Socialism?
