Summary/Abstract: Testimonies that are transmitted through oral tradition assist historians in their struggle to reveal the past. Particularly, in this case, it manages to reveal the anguish and suffering that was subjected to people during the communist period. Individual or collective memory cannot be considered a less reliable source than other historical sources. As long as a witness is still alive, the historical facts must be reviewed and taken into account. The interview that targets Grigore Ciobică manages to prove this fact.
