The way the historical genre has developed in Romania provides background on both audience reception and the politics of re-enactment in popular cinema. This is the first time that English-speaking readers have gained access to a comprehensive selection of fiction films set in the Romanian past.

Anglo-American reporting on interwar Romania and Romanian historical fiction expound on the postcolonial and adversarial rhetoric of Romanian colonial history.
