The concluding event of the public program for Harun Farocki: VIDEOGRAMME EINER REVOLUTION (2026) features a presentation by researcher and film worker William Dalenson Oros, who offers a personal mapping of media representation leading up to and surrounding the Romanian Revolution in 1989. Engaging with video material from his grandfather’s archive, including recorded VHS tapes of Swedish television news broadcasts and reportage on Romania from the 1980s and 1990s, as well as home videos recorded in the aftermath of the fall of Nicolae Ceaușescu’s dictatorship, Dalenson Oros examines the intersections of personal memory, image-making, and history.
