Adalbert`s Dream is a black comedy based on a real story that took place in a Romanian communist factory in the 80s. A work accident is re-enacted, but the re-enacting becomes a new accident, as the worker playing the victim gets his hand cut as well. The film is set in May 1986, the anniversary of the founding of the Communist Party, and the day following a historic Champion’s League football win for Romania. The main character, Iulica, is a technician whose life is turned upside down when he has to show two propaganda films on worker safety at the factory party.
