It begins outside the Georges Pompidou Center in Paris on film by Marco Pontecorvo, at the 65th Venice Film Festival in the Horizons section, but the story (true) of Pa-ra-by from one place and much more distant reality , A year before it was mounted the stage in this initial image, leaving presage an imminent spectacle inspired by children. The Romanians, these strangers, so come back to be told by an Italian on the big screen, a few months away from the rest of the night Francis Munz, but failed attempt that has added nothing to our understanding of a people as complex which makes a lot of talk in recent times by our party. This time it goes to their house, right inside their land, to the squalor brutalization that some of them, making them potential hazards to anyone, but above all for themselves. Pa-ra-da fact speaks of a youth incinerated, which is of course only one of many reality that the country is made, that drug is sniffed paint, to endure days of crime and violence, who lack parental figures and institutions totally incapable of growth, educate, but above all to protect them from these exploiters using it only to get rich.
It is up to a young French-Algerian clown awaken their consciences. E ''Miloud, who in 1992 reached a Bucharest that only a few years left the hard fist of Ceausescu. Together with a humanitarian organization wants to pull out of manholes so-called "boskettari", children living as strays in the channels where the pipes pass for heating, forced to steal and prostitute themselves in order to stay afloat in misery.

These are children who want to save Miloud through art and a smile, trying to involve them in a circus show that aims to teach respect for themselves and to distinguish good from evil in a world where everything seems to be bad.
Respect is a word that often in Pa-ra-da, unknown to the strays that can be rape even if only by sight of the greatest, always ready to take advantage of their weakness to be strong. The camera work hand-Pontecorvo can register without ever appear superficial or too high, this silent desperation, misery of this routine, taking a painful blow whenever pauses on small faces put in plastic bags that inspired evil. Cinema nomad, which is mixed between those who do not know to learn how to do it and mindful of the lesson neorealist runs between dirty faces in the same places that says, Pa-ra-da alongside professional actors (adults) to beginners collected by road and schools (the Children naturally good) and knows how to convince even the ability to witness a credible pain. Not sure what is missing brunt rhetoric that must always pay when you bring children on the screen, violence, poverty, injustice and anything can be born in us that sense of outrage that in the face of these infamies are presumed inevitable for those who believe man. But when the drama already very harrowing turns into tragedy is impossible not to be overwhelmed by the rigors facing the loss on the faces of these little human beings with age children and the pain in adults after centuries of torture.
