The life of human beings, seen from birth to old age. Only that this generic life is not represented with humans, but with the artefacts that we the humans have created for our children (or should we say ‘cubs’?), in order to prepare them for life: the toys. So, the film is a collage of scenes in which the toys help us understand better a possible essence of our life.

Based on an idea by Eisenstein, who dreamt of composing the 101 poses of Robert Macaire – a popular French character epitomizing the unscrupulous swindler – as represented in the 101 lithographs of the series Caricaturana by Honoré Daumier. First, a montage of the gestures as Eisenstein envisaged. Then, original texts are added to the caricatures. And finally, we took the liberty to use them as a commentary to some current news.

Director
In "Spaces #2", 7 internationally acclaimed directors shot, after commissioning by the Thessaloniki International Film Festival, a short film at home, making their own timely comment on the new reality that we live in. The project is inspired by the book "Species of Spaces" by the French novelist, filmmaker, documentalist, and essayist, Georges Perec and the days of quarantine. The idea is to create a film at home, using the environment, the people or the animals in that space. The only outdoor areas that may be used are outdoor living spaces, such as the terrace, the garden, the balcony and the stairwell. "A Fable" is Radu Jude's submission.

In 1981, chalk slogans written in uppercase letters started appearing in public spaces in the Romanian city of Botoşani. They demanded freedom, alluded to the democratic developments taking place in Romania’s socialist sister countries or simply called for improvements in the food supply. Mugur Călinescu was behind them, who was still at school at the time and whose case is documented in the files of the Romanian secret police. Theatre director Gianina Cărbunariu created a documentary play based on this material.

El interés de Radu Jude por la historia de siglo XIX y XX no se basa en una mera curiosidad revisionista del pasado. Jude intenta sistemáticamente mostrar cómo la experiencia social y política de antaño pervive en los intersticios del presente. Como sucedía en Nación muerta a propósito de otro archivo fotográfico, varias fotografías de un policía de campo, entre 1950 y 1980, posando frente a cámara en distintos eventos de su vida doméstica, a menudo revisadas por encuadres cambiantes que desordenan el interés semántico original, entran en resonancia con el prefacio del film, en el que se lee un pasaje de una obra de Grigore Lăcusteanu que remite al título del film y establece una ligazón entre los dos siglos mencionados, del mismo modo que la existencia de la película extiende las palabras y las fotos al presente.
