SOUVENIRS OF BUCOVINA: A Romanian Survival Guide is a two-hour documentary about the region of Bucovina which is located on the northern slopes of the central Eastern Carpathians and adjoining plains; which has been conquered repeatedly by outside forces; and which, since World War II, has been split between Northern Romania and Southern Ukraine. The film is divided into six parts: the first examines enduring treasures of the Bucovina region; the second introduces multiple generations of a unique Bucovinan family; the third explores some of the last remaining synagogues and cemeteries of the once-dominant Jewish population which was largely killed off or deported during and after the Second World War; the fourth explores the Rroma (gypsy) population which was enslaved for 500 years and which (like the Jewish population) was transported to death camps during World War II; the fifth examines ongoing Bucovinan and Romanian survival skills and compares life under Communism from the 1940s through the 1980s with life under Capitalism and democracy today; and the sixth explores the outbreak of color in Romanian society since the democratic revolution of 1989.
