1990: A springtime of hope. V for peace. Bucharest near Revolution Square, boy in front of a bullet hole riddled Dacia.

In 1990 Bucharest was very much under construction as part of Ceaușescu’s program of Systematization (Sistematizarea). in the 1980s an area of 8 square kilometres of the historic centre of Bucharest was levelled. At the time of death of Ceaușescu many buildings were still under construction.
