About this audio guide
This guide to Bellu Cemetery in Bucharest follows Toma Caragiu, the comic actor whose monologues of sarcasm and black humour made him a national favourite. It sets you in his living room on the evening of the fourth of March, nineteen seventy-seven, as a director friend arrives with news about his first feature film. Fellow actor Ion Caramitru and a dog called Puși turn up along the way. Listen from the section where the cemetery gathers its actors.
