A documentary about the New Romanian Cinema. "Cinemaguerilla" brings together over 30 interviews with directors, producers, actors, film historians and critics about what unites and what separates the New Wave of Romanian films.

It is late in the Ceausescu era in Romania, and Cristina is having a difficult time with her boyfriend. He wants her to have sex with him before he goes off to do his obligatory stint in the army. She wants him to marry her first. She also gets involved with a slightly rebellious actor, a would-be ladies' man. He has some vague plans to defect - could those be the reason he is receiving mysterious phone calls? Or are they the work of his anonymous admirer?

À la fin des années 80, dans la Roumanie de Ceausescu, un contrebandier de VHS au marché noir et une courageuse traductrice ont apporté la magie des films occidentaux au peuple roumain et ont semé les graines d'une révolution.
