(2024, France, Romania, 86')
After well over a decade of work, Romanian director Andrei Ujică presents for the first time in Absolute Things We Said Today, a documentary about the Beatles’ famous North American tour. The feature film reports a detailed account of the excitement that gripped thousands of Americans in August 1965 during the English band’s second tour in the USA.
Born in 1951, Andrei Ujica is a Romanian screenwriter and director known for his documentaries. Debuts on the cinema scene with the film Videograms of a Revolution (1992) which, directed together with Harun Farocki, portrays a perfect picture of the Romanian Revolution of 1989 using amateur footage and news footage. In 1995 the documentary Out of the Present was released which, compared to classics such as
2001: A Space Odyssey and Solaris, has become a cult of the non-fiction genre.
