so there they. do you know if you are. going to be you know. once the most corrupt country in the european union romanian society is engaged in an unprecedented fight against corruption. on the 31st of january 27th in the biggest protests since the fall of romania's communist dictatorship broke out in the streets of who caressed. the newly sworn in government had secretly foster the creek that would grant its members immunity from prosecution on some corruption charges. hundreds of officials including businessmen mayors government ministers and members of parliament have been charged and convicted at the center of it all is an independent judicial body the national anti-corruption directorate or d n n in the early 2016 the d.n.a. studies prosecutor announced a sharp spike in corruption charges for 3 missions with the carter based on me and

those that users think will part the court learnable and not she may. of course the missions or the card they change or my words mean parliament thought they could talk one day on. so it's. not all. independent collectives like the funky citizens have also joined the fight against corruption they are adopting the quirky offbeat approach. to. its 42 months of the new show on this course the bottom of the trouble is it's. a lot of them coming from all the want to go. to so. long it's not a little too long. 30

years of dictatorship has given rise to a healthy sense of humor in romania. in this spirit the 2 are focused on high level corruption has been created in bucharest. the lot use the 1. this. meter and direct. i mean. much shorter but so.

far want to be amusing. to me that. my phone was off. to a young minister of agriculture in 2007 sentenced to 3 years in prison for accepting bribes in cash and sausages bin laden and jelly beans you might like. to see in the business of time thank you so much. you know. one thing i'm. really. trying a little catch though is tuesday me. who. supports the. mayor of poorest from 2008 to 2015 charged with taking bribes.

but in general. the most. recent your 1st. book wasn't. go out of. the inside out little bit in the mayor of 2 crist sector 3 those 51000000 euros in back taxes. that is amazing to me. mayor of the cruelest. sector 5 from 2000 to 2016 charged with taking $90000000.00 euro bright. meat but sheesh. it's all describe the same pervasive reality in romania ripes. times are changing local government schools police stations and hospitals have

a long history of taking bribes in exchange for service. i. think. has additional good. news or so to inspire which are trying and some of what you look at my list of what are. in romania corruption extends well beyond the envelopes that civil servants receive to supplement their incomes at the highest levels bribes are replaced by briefcases and the misuse of taxpayers' money becomes more creative and the leverage touch of a demo money artist pull the dent. she can what does that.

sound got us thinking because one t.t.n. kurdish fellow says propped up and parted the living. they example. when i got a. minister by the. but. lord be my each. other parliament in my age despair contacted me to ask what about the prophets yalda here my lord. then they are forced quite there yet. is that part of. him or what i said. in 2002 the national anti-corruption direct threat or d n a was created as an independent judicial body to enact reforms required for romania's

entry into the european union in a few short years the growing number of corruption revelations in romania have implicated politicians from every party. thousands of scandals and shameless dealings have been brought to light. the d.n.a. is chief prosecutor it is lowered. her unrelenting determination has made her the central figure in the fight to eradicate corruption. offshore start. condition. and. also investing. only if. she got a credit for the more than churches. not just the 4. shall

call all exist. in the uk and there are. changes just. a few floors up but the d.n.a. a special investigations team is helping to solve some of the d.n.a. is biggest cases. and that's to me is almost. here. in the future mark in this film are you. feeling lucky tonight that i actually have. that. prosecutor power and police investigator nicole asia earned their stripes in the fight against organized crime both highly skilled investigators they've unearthed evidence

leading to the prosecution of romanian political elites. wife actually. there were intelligent we just shot we too far to go. over them. but what i wish to go to it. was an. infection a diversion if you scar. what the little commenter fights if you cut. must lead. them to poor vision in the dark and what live action they've. put up with i she she i thought to tell him the very. question. up with the charm of course i haven't wolf human history no thought they were getting cheaper so. the issues in your live are i walk around to look for

a crash in fresh but they step by step by me so full city. c.l.r. elizabeth us cannot realize the rest. of it sure looked at it on that subject. she couldn't buy new it turns out it was lost that the global party leadership has to sort of think you've almost all put that simple task of study up all you like dr just a lot of fun and a. couplet it. was last use of the show it has already delayed because of the other 5 out there go up there was a bear market of progress a pen to paper. it out but i've devised sprouted one. of their core of a core of a. something on. the disk you want to post only allow the bottoms of our semi point jane just to show small. were. done across

and under some of us i must invest in just be example to get a cut and it's new to different year. and you multi-boot. you're going. right to remove the. united opposition noise in the bogs issue nor can the fox to. be in their party doing so with the party that had the poor would see. also on the wall as. my me starts your. year she also flog. as an independent journalist bugel has investigated corrupt officials and closely followed some of romania's most notorious corruption cases. but you would believe it. to be done in their own name but it may be you pleaded with them you don't think that was anybody she thought was part of the control room but you are painting. and we are going to be cute if you could because you know but if you want

to see the way you simply got. to stop. your money. my good day to. you. always on what it. means chained. to the. family pool or school for a check of the old guard and president of the now defunct conservative party was convicted in 2014 for buying property at 60 times less than its actual value. in monaco meant to. me before enough but this. year. you know money. at a nice. enough stops. just.

for. my. remodel. share for me. as with other eastern bloc regimes the fall of the dictatorship provided an opportunity for party stalwarts to prosper. government funds were misappropriate. did and many from the old guard filled their pockets the dictatorship had given way to new levels of corruption. but of all nazi or model that you had extended wouldn't propagate that up only class top level science that unlink levite that she. done for the other new normals h. cup archie that out test out only got a society on as that are partially outclassing existent for them spawn other fuckin

way to start the winter politico dela when i type this exist acquired of what i thought was the simple technique i also stated that i said here couple below such as what is that nuclear cell scheme of the moment when cut out all money and to negotiate a new novel panna then tried that out or shut down to know about upping call me so open office and muscular supporter could have fired. it on my knee my less untouchable investors an additional state issued the. money come up of a was appointed a minister of justice from 2004 to 2007 with the support of the european commission she prepared the way for romanians anti-corruption prosecutors in many parts and the calendar that we have to do it in a short time i mean have a paper closing and got 2004 so i have very few time to date. and

then i was important for me it was a support to me for me to change. into short years minister michael bay's doggedness in the face of intense opposition allowed her to launch a process of judicial reform. then a relatively unknown entity that d.n.a. came to prominence as michael vick pushed for its right to prosecute white collar crime. but d.n.a. is 1st cases went relatively unnoticed by the press. but i think if we wait for years. on one of the one main. yes the up until about a new study out on when you get those in parliament that government will be my brother he stood out on when he. formed here at this question is that was he should that senate. or even a prime minister indicted in 2005 i began as

a descendant from the communist dictatorship have become one of the most powerful men in romania just because you did it. charged with embezzling one and a half 1000000 euros for his electoral campaign and taking the 630000 year old right in quantity to look at us about a woman i think that analysis and all that other. sort of follow but she seemed almost. i think all normal. so to my one hour less i be called norm. so explain the chair a focal don't look. at it. just before i begin to. get it. i just to talk to.

you without the robot it is a few years after these comments in 2012 the prime minister was sentenced to 4 years in prison for passive corruption and blackmail but again the star says conviction was a lightning bolt for society since then the corruption investigations have accelerated and the d.n.a. has achieved celebrity status in romania. it didn't take long for the media to catch on and to begin reporting on an unrelenting stream of revelations each day this is the scene outside the offices of the d.n.a. certain not to leave empty handed the media gathered to catch the drama in real time it's the most closely watched media event in the country. photographer is creating a unique series of documentary portraits that capture the expressions of in battle delete what about. the signature.

look alike. i. wish b.t.w. why don't i check check check you. know i don't know i'm. in april 26th seen a journalist exposed to hicks a former scandal the case cause public outrage forcing the minister of health to resign i think you. see far more. different than the way you treat my money. but i support the police and i think that showing. votes more every day and the moment the record is that it's pretty clear that the water boils down to the wind if you're. there on the right it was as if you're in for

a life but imagine. if. she interrupted you i don't know what's up for the world but actually looking into this if you're going to kind of get busy with the government among even real cuts so that i will show you the stipulated fact judge just a couple options that the club as usual must suffer for just enough honesty if you want to dress up being in command of that but just that one doctor says the she needs the person the worst will be you know what you get them down. on. the market is and they might not have been out without the benefit. of all that is what really stood out on the door she don't know you you mind you know coupled with my world they're going to be part of the logic of loss or a loss that is. a little. shocking but then a few many chilled out the broken already more seem to be its own from the pro quo

tory thing mr young. that's happening the wrong. couldn't go on the ball. brought the girl it's also lizzie she. will. sorry for the important delusion was a change of guard sort of thought of the thought all along with a cheap thirst and on top of it will you go your own lunch aboard. on vapor. thought of in a lot. of different parts of augusta say more. than triple the best allowed years for fond. of him but he got his lot as a father. yes yes.

romanians growing civil society to uncover and prosecute corruption at the highest levels. independent media groups like the rice project are playing an important role in exposing corrupt practices. rise is an information site that provides a platform for journalists activists and investigative hackers. here activists journalists can sometimes uncover in a day what prosecutors would require years to obtain. is co-founder of the rights project and. he's taken part in many international investigations and was a key player in helping analyze the panama paper's leak. or shooting listing artists can actually investing i tell 2030 oshima i think that actually i need to look i know where to go to tell us apart on this was not a test of the money value. for them but it to. sell wanting more

content. cheaper than paying for it all for me when i walk. down a lot on sell it said. you know what i mean i think that it wasn't only getting. us all to inform lots of us that. budget us this bubble but as an old buzzer that they were going to put up a lot in of itself was limiting for marty this will combine the early start that i was alluding to that the only that was for this was that the 4 months you know the dangers are going to go then that that is because bonnie could if i can fudge a little money for that english. called. before all the money for that technology policy like us investing. is that the. last. could be finra recent years rumanian society has begun to

feel the impact of a growing wave of corruption convictions. emboldened by judicial reform people are increasingly demanding that the law apply equally to all i think it was the ongoing judicial battle has energized protesters in the 2015 tens of thousands flooded the streets of bucharest to protest the deadly fire at the collective nightclub despite unsafe conditions the club obtained its operating license in exchange for a bride. 64 people mostly teenagers died in the blaze. just persis prime minister victor was forced to resign. mass protests are a growing trend in romania where 40 years of state rule all but destroyed citizen

action 30 years earlier and big gatherings in romania looked like this shows of mass solidarity orchestrated by the state called for justice gave way to resignation poverty and despair in recent years the pioneers of progressive change have claimed their place in society. is a historian and specialist in communist crimes he's also a famous activist in bucharest hello to both is the. difficulty if you like one moment. we should ask you what we've got because. it's one of our products you should know what is who puts. it in their movies as affordable. although there were no momentum or general questions that seattle was on call comical topical dishes for sure stewart. no matter which joke i'm sure to for the exam is a cool thing that it's going to cynical more than the more than can be good for the

complexity of the must take ok i say 100 you say ok what is it you speak to be down to talk about what you look at it now but i mean you're not just awful i've been locked up. as with spain's in the those or the ok by wall street movement in the us romania's protest movement is led by activists like me hyped all it takes is a few activists like him to ignite social action or what they look to stay. cool character a more gentle darker black on more mild opprobrium a quarter grab at birth she was just the name for this section is my list go for the. extra muscle it's your nose down dizziness the condition of resources. so this is going to be to no you're not really that you might want to was going to get me in and i was ok. and.

social activism on this level would have been unimaginable a few years ago. today targeted actions can take only a few hours to germinate and spread. across our choices about whole thinking sometimes the nice i slip out of my money are going to democrats here but then what we did there was a daughter to pull me and most of the shine on to the set on the summer school you look for students like that all part of the book it's meant to be just a little because she's a few issues sure to say that the. it was. building the activist capacity of an entire generation is a bold project. the funky citizens aim to defy boundaries and to forge a path for civil society in romania. give this to the girls it's

what wins a complete because they can they. get close to the ship and if you cheat and steal and just get the most when you get them back to you that's what i did. in 2012 created the funky citizens to confront government corruption she hired hyperactive young graduates out of law political science and communications courses . a correlation of creative activists the funky citizens are advocating for the growth of civil society in romania. who want something that you know i'm not going to go to that that you're going to want to me was a part of the indoor me days to talk more. with to push off the fact that this morning thing today i wasn't or you want to post something blog i think i'd like to get it out of range. in the simplest legal that that this sounds an awful lot

more income we. saw when he bought the. ngos and civil society activists have steadily been gaining momentum the funky citizens have been working in a vibrant offbeat style one of the of their name. on the citizens who is punishing them alone. and them gelatin are going to import them that up to the issue but i'm certain they become something that's all stopped will become she funkier for last month at a fortune my surely my old film because. that is to awaken citizen awareness the funky citizens are addressing corruption with a sense of irony. is the creator of an unusual sight the bribe market which allows users to know the average bribe in a specific hospital town hall or police station exist them with the code gone.

softly yes they should chip this site yes they can. start the course the chines age. because someone because. their. perspective of what they. what they get. meant they. are. in many future. vici a lot of. many young graduates with specialized skills have chosen to work in these novel structures. here they can discuss the performance of the courts fact check political statements or analyze the latest reforms. by each. surfing part.

of the example. 1st of course i thought they were. solid day or yet are here institutes you probably go i but corruption lives on even when the high and mid-level officials are jailed public service budgets are also 1st though grown for corruption to address this elenor also has a countrywide program to train advocates how to decipher public finances. i thought you know that was what it was. it was a job and they said they did it was just a few for one that. was ok so that's just as cool but the fact that to support you take out

a 2nd spot you wanted your doctor to call to 20 hour is the fucking store so. if you. look at this cell site he says we're not going to support the cut up time and last class of them this past half hour and my gosh you had much less intelligent than shooting the chief numbers coming up to be so i call that actually cut into the large budget i said i was going to move. this by to this flurry of activism the fight against corruption is far from won. the government is it pains to recover stolen funds. the accused to decry stalinist trials and anger against the judicial system has reached a boiling point. the political climate has become so tense that's the chief prosecutor broached the issue on primetime radio. that the team to not talk included the lawsuit the now there's one of the got

a knowledge of don't this but arctic fox dark wood in view carries the. that that's one of the got a nice letter to the dog to see if you thought the injunction why did the cattle upset of all mine also and feed him a shot and then to go to cedar bend doing to need another ma activity denies that indoor meat raised british monarch all of it it's you know it's you know you're going to need one moment law possibility that they're pretty muddy don't i was that is each year long and. yoda. but what are the limits of the rich and powerful when cornered by justice. politicians have been looking to pass laws that would diminish the d.n.a.'s powers . we don't anybody did it but it.

is there might be a new. parliament. all the audience asking the little dog on his auto someone if you took all that and celebrated to not so long and i mean it is a couple of thoughts in a day of a cigar shuttle such a thought that you feel that's a new no doubt journalists will for the 1st vision extend the important things to spread those of you know them with a cool don't seem to question to thoughts any part of. law just the thought of a cut of fortune. on the 31st of january 2017 romania's newly sworn in government issued a late night executive order that would pardon politicians of some corruption offenses. the media quickly informed to the public by midnight 25000 protesters flooded the streets of the capital that number swelled to 300000

in the next days with hundreds of thousands more gathered in cities across romania . the government was forced to rescind its decree a few days later. as a check to the powers of governance the funky citizens count on an important ally the european commission. on your off. the budget for now you. for all your case. since joining the e.u. romania has been closely monitored by the european commission twice a year the commission issues reports that. measure its progress in the fight against corruption. no one know what the party will be cheney who looked a lot. called on me because if you don't want to make it pay them on it or use

out of the law books that. are transmitted from all our lawn mower not boycott the government or whatever talk at the parliament shop and you're out there just in one or more you me she was broken free and guarded thought. when i called on our egyptian. government trying to push the limits n.g.o.s and citizens mobilizing in the vigilant european commission this framework stands as the most efficient safeguard in attempts to weaken the fight against corruption. monitoring by the commission should end by 2020 but that's romania have the institutional and political maturity to progress on its own nothing to do so to that or to be so seen i'm quoting here a foot artist mckinney's local but other issue that he thought it would. have been if you chaired the scene that on it but 12 just

a shrug to beat out that she could read the. comic on his website on one of the but out up part there could at goshen i took that say i haven't are difficult she crept that us on to sent them plan not just on quality let you know. it's early summer 2016 and romania is about to elect new mayors. romanian seem happy about a push for transparency but will they vote for change. many hope the election will reveal the impact that prosecutors and civil society groups are having on the romanian public. does that give you. an equal shot down has created the save book arrest union or the u s b. it's a campaign born of civil society founded on hope in the democratic rejuvenation of romania. for this former mathematician the fight against corruption is a clear path towards the renewal of romania's political class. you all know.

if you simply. watch out for there were. enough open up. years that you. should have done to present his party as the only recourse to a decadent political class a class that continues running candidates embattled by corruption scandals. on election day locked up has decided to follow a candidate he knows well one of the headliners of book arrests corruption to work . the mayor of bucharest sector 5 charged with taking a bribe of $90000000.00 euros. apart and also with

a little bit isn't good to put you know me so that if you don't shut up when you put it this might think oh yes yes i mean it's god's going to step down he shocked us all and about that he made what if he could have been yes i'll probably make that. but i'm going with the voting to go against what i've been out with and i'll stick at putting. my almost at the for the market that. i think. the 5 of us are going to begin to. look look look look look look look. can i look on the more. visible the steps

that you wish but. what do you think you might think. the pretty cause. if you're going to be taken this is not a test of. time and i. think. people should be in the room here to do that pretty much a. few weeks. we think we should do a good thing because you don't think. that this new. things i think might. really push the funky citizens have banded with other n.g.o.s to spots plus. able fraud they've set up a call center and sent observers to polling stations i don't ya. know must

have said this i like this or so so i thought. of him but when i think of it the less frequently than before electoral fraud can be just as flagrant i think that's what the consequence of. that. was the. vehicle was. really clear. that the transition to the rest of the ship to be as much of the city did the 6 years he wanted to be out of the way or kind of say you take one car be given that one off the one you got what that little nasties discarded like whizzing down the bottom them last. to. come off last and that's the feeling that i thought it was fun to be no particular victim here just a kind of only not just the 6 year gap in the manufacturing jobs you know how much i wanted out of and i think. the day is coming to an end and to me push out of

dunns us meeting maids are awaiting the results. in a surprise done cus the party has won 30 percent of the vote. it is the 1st time that the new political party has done so well in local elections. to profit. off. but you. do you know i. would think that it was. the funky citizens are taking stock of the day of mixed results even if mayor mike young volunteer you photographed earlier hasn't been reelected candidates with corruption cases have done well. was i was leaving.

the. scene did you think that you. know off. limits analysis is fair the candidate's judicial troubles haven't stopped many from voting for them the romanians have real acted nearly 50 mayors convicted of or charged with corruption. mayor of cry over charged with taking a bribe and money laundering reelected with 58 percent of the votes. the court rejected the d.n.a. charges and in january 2017. became minister of labor and social justice.

judges get. charged with taking a bribe reelected with 52 percent of the vote. cut the link mayor of miami charged with taking a bribe reelected with 70 percent of the vote while behind bars. as romania confronts the ghosts of its past the descendants of a bygone era are clinging to money and power. in the legislative elections of late 2016 the majority of seats went to the social democratic party who are fiercely this by them earlier conviction of its president for electoral fraud. but people are beginning to support the new parties on the promise of change. following electoral success a few my. earlier than see us be party changed its name to the save room a new union for us are winning 9 percent of seats in parliament. romania continues
