- Synopsis
- 'The Tanase Affair' looks at the strange business in 1982 concerning Virgil Tanase and Paul Goma, dissident Romanian writers living in France whose assassinations were ordered by the Ceau?escu government, setting in motion an almost unbelievable sequence of events and catalogue of dodgy characters in the secret services of the two countries that’s worthy of Le Carré at his most byzantine. Ionut Teianu has rifled TV and press archives to put together a fascinating documentary that is exemplary in its clear exposition of these deadly goings on. The fact that much still remains unclear, not least some of the motivations involved, adds spice.
