Watch Closer to the Moon

Bucharest 1959. A spectacular National Bank of Romania heist has the country in an uproar. In post-war Communist Romania it is an unimaginable slap in the face to the iron fisted authorities. Four men and a woman (The Ioanid Gang) are arrested, tried, convicted and while waiting for their execution, they are forced by the Securitate to star in a propaganda film about the crime. All five protagonists were heroes of the resistance during the Second World War and highly placed members of Romanian society. They clearly knew they would be caught and executed.

Closer to the Moon is a 2014 comedy with a runtime of 1 hour and 52 minutes. It has received mostly poor reviews from critics and viewers, who have given it an IMDb score of 6.8 and a MetaScore of 47.
