Beneath the Surface (2014)
Beneath a reservoir in Romania lies the drowned village of Bözödújfalu, where a community of different faiths lived in peace for centuries. However, due to the village destruction policy of Ceaucescu, the inhabitants were expropriated in 1989 and the village was overrun. 25 years after the evacuation, they meet again on the edge of the lake.
