Uppercase Print (Romanian: Tipografic majuscul) is a 2020 Romanian drama film directed by Radu Jude.[1][2] It is based on the real story of Mugur Călinescu [ro], who, in 1981, wrote a series of texts against Nicolae Ceaușescu's dictatorship on the walls with chalk and was denounced by his friends. His story is staged as Gianina Cărbunariu reconstructed it from his Securitate file; this material is interspersed with images of Romanian life taken from the National Television archive from the same period.
