Brief synopsis of Break Of Dawn
Adrien is suffering from terminal cancer whilst Werner has a long standing death wish. BREAK OF DAWN brings together these two strangers in pre-election Bucharest, where they play a central part in a staged assault on a candidate. As part of the plan, the two must themselves be murdered. But although their circumstances make them suitable fall guys, their lives are initially spared when the attack descends into chaos. Staying alive thereafter involves dodging fellow conspirators and the police, but Adrien and Werner develop a bond in their adversity. A "buddy" movie for sure, but one fuelled by grim drama and high stakes.

Critics Reviews
Radio Times
A strong, affecting biopic telling the story of a courageous, unsung Los Angeles folk hero. Pedro J Gonzalez, played by Mexican actor/singer Oscar Chavez, was the city's first Hispanic radio host who, instead of opting to play a few mariachi songs and recommending taco outlets, tried to rouse his compatriots into nonviolent political action. Through the use of an intelligent script, a merciful lack of clichés and Chavez's fine performance, we come to understand the man and the hornet's nest he stirred up.
