12:08 East of Bucharest

In this quirky comedy, a charismatic talk show host brings together an eccentric professor with a drinking problem and a retired pensioner famous for playing Santa Claus to investigate whether a revolution ever took place in their hometown of Vaslui.

In a small town, 16 years have passed since the revolution, and Christmas is approaching. Piscoci, a retired man, prepares for another lonely holiday. Meanwhile, Manescu, a history teacher, struggles to manage his debts. Jderescu, the local TV station owner, is more concerned with confronting the past than celebrating the holidays. Along with Manescu and Piscoci, Jderescu seeks to uncover the truth: was their town's event a revolution or not?
