The head and limbs had been sawed from his body and evidence that they had been burned in the furnace of her home (she and her adolescent daughter shared with her parents) later surfaced.

But, when police are tipped-off by her father, the decayed remains of Evelyn's baby boy encased in cement under the floor boards of her home are found. Although she is acquitted of the murder of her husband, she is sentenced to 11 years in prison for the murder of her infant son. No one was ever convicted of the murder of John Dick.

- DirectorNicolae MargineanuStarsRemus MargineanuLuminita GheorghiuIon HaiducRomania after December 1989 ... A shipyard on the banks of the Danube, in the "transition period", insecure and turbulent that confuses, overturns the scale of values, not without leaving behind countless victims. Appreciated worker, former dissident who, during Ceausescu's time, paid years in prison for his dissatisfaction, Fane (Remus Margineanu) becomes unemployed, precisely because of those exposed by the moment of sincerity of the "revolution". His unionist zeal turns into a weapon against him and his family, the solidarity of the workers being realized according to the individual advantages or pressures. The spirit of revolt of the children metamorphoses, and he, in an adventurous spirit, they end up entering dubious business. Thus Vali, Fane's daughter, prostitutes herself, in order to pay for her university studies, and Viorel (Cristian Iacob), the eldest of the boys, ends up in prison. But especially the fate of Nelu, the youngest of the family, is a warning about the unpredictability of the future: Nelu also falls into the trap of easy gains, not understanding the sudden transition from the effervescence of the "revolution" (in which he participated as a little hero ) to the rage, hatred, tumult of which he became a witness in all the circumstances of daily life.

- DirectorGérard Poitou-WeberStarsMichel AumontAndré WilmsClémentine AmourouxIn the 19th century, children - particularly the children of the poor - were considered to be an exploitable resource of docile and cheap labor. Anyone who had the effrontery to steal so much as a portion of a loaf of bread for any reason would (at the very least) go to prison, regardless of their age. However, people of conscience were beginning to protest against this situation. The story takes place in a prison for children where conditions are particularly harsh. The warden is a thick-headed martinet who demands complete compliance with the rules, or the children will be brutally dealt with. The assistant warden is a more modern man, and is appalled by the whole institution, but seeks to begin by reforming it. To that end, he has invited a journalist to come and see the conditions that prevail there, in the hopes that she will rouse public opinion against at least this one form of injustice.
