This was absolutely incredible. No words can describe how awful the Romanian people suffered through Ceausescu's reign of terror. May this story (and many similar ones) be shared for many years to come 💓
Graphic: Blood and Torture
Moderate: Body horror
Minor: Death of parent
A lot of blood and body horror happen towards the end, mirroring the suffering the Romanians have have gone through
