Ideologie şi negociere socială. O interpretare a filmului Îmi este indiferent dacă în istorie vom intra ca barbari
Ideology and Social Negotiation. An Interpretation of the Film I Don’t Care If We Go Down in History as Barbarians

Summary/Abstract: The article interprets Radu Jude’s 2018 film by referring to the political and historical present and having as a starting point the private life of the main heroine, the director Mariana Marin. This approach is camouflaged under the dominance of the directorial conception which insists on the analysis of the historical event (the Odessa massacre). Referring to the current dominant discourse of the film and the story it presents, the study highlights the need to mediate the meaning of the artistic act between the authority and the author of the work of art. Such an approach is necessary because the event presented, namely Romania's participation in the Holocaust, involves an infinite guilt that cannot be instrumentalized either by the authority or by the author of the work.
