Summary/Abstract: The essay analyzes Radu Jude’s Do Not Expect Too Much from the End of the World in the context of postsocialist media aesthetics and the erosion of public discourse. Engaging with critiques of the Romanian New Wave, the author positions Jude’s hybrid, intermedial approach as a counter-aesthetic to both nostalgic realism and neoliberal image regimes. The essay draws parallels with Hungarian post-1989 artistic responses, arguing that Jude’s film attempts to rebuild the agora – public space and debate – through a deliberately fragmented, vulgar, and polemical cinematic language.
