Cinema 10 to present ‘Tales from the Golden Age’ on Nov. 14

POTSDAM – Cinema 10 continues its Fall 2011 season Monday, Nov. 14 with a showing of Tales from the Golden Age, a 2009 film from Romania made up of satirical vignettes about Romania.

Films are shown on Mondays at 7:15 p.m. in the Roxy Theater, Main St.

Tickets are $4.50 general / $35 season or $3.50 student/senior/$25 season.

Tales from the Golden Age is a Romanian comedy that consists of five short films, each one a dark satire set in the laughably titled "golden age" of late-communist Romania.

The short stories presented in this anthology film explore some of the most bizarre and ridiculous urban myths that were promoted by the communist propaganda.

The UK's Daily Telegraph urged "anyone impelled by the upcoming 20th anniversary of the toppling of the Berlin Wall to dig deeper into Europe's recent past; anyone in search of a genuinely original and very funny film: Tales From the Golden Age is just the ticket."
