One Night explores the events surrounding the violent fall of the communist regime in Romania in December of 1989 as seen through the wide eyes of its young lead character. Smart, bright eyed, later hurt and damaged Andrea Tudor is a fluid mirror of the events she witnesses. An old Romanian popular ballad - the Legend of Master Manole - is the philosophical foundation for the events: Manole is the symbol of letting go of one's love for a bigger cause. Andrea comes of age trying to understand the deeper meaning of this mysterious ballad as her own fate seems connected to it. The characters are therefore deeply embossed in the country's immediate and even remote history. To some extent a sense of cultural hopelessness restricts their perceived possibilities.
