En Roumanie, après la libération, une équipe de reporters TV cherche en pleine campagne des personnes ayant vécu une histoire suffisamment extraordinaire pour que cela puisse constituer un sujet de reportage. Guidés par un maire local qui ironise sur les critères d'attribution des aides européennes, ils aperçoivent une vieille femme habillée tout en noir, qui erre à l'intérieur d'une sinistre friche industrielle. Le maire explique qu'il y avait ici jadis un joli village, mais qu'il fut totalement rasé par les forces répressives du régime communiste pour laisser place à cette usine, aujourd'hui abandonnée et en ruine.
