Secretul lui Nemesis

This film is so badly constructed that it's really hard to describe it. Its context is probably the paranoid interdiction by the Communist Securitate (political secret police) of Transcendental Meditation and anything related to spiritual practices, even martial arts and faculties of psychology or sociology in the 1980s. Everything was lumped over and labeled as 'cults' or 'sects'. Beside that stupid premise, this propaganda film is so poorly made regarding its erratic and unbelievable script and directing (by the ever-fidgeting and humorless 'specialist director of Romanian comedy' Geo Saizescu), that the viewer feels sorry for the excellent actors obliged to show up in this nonredeemable, lame attempt. The characters are so insanely exaggerated and childish (and childishly written), and the dialog and situations are so lifeless and absurd (but lacking any fun) that the only reasonable conclusion is: it's a piece of propaganda made by people who had almost absolutely no idea what they were talking about.
