The Way I Spent the End of the World (ro|Cum mi-am petrecut sfârșitul lumii) is the feature-length film debut of Romanian director Cătălin Mitulescu. It was released on September 15, 2006.
The film is about 17-year-old Eva and 7-year-old Lilu, siblings living in Bucharest, Romania during the final years of the regime of Nicolae Ceaușescu. After Eva is expelled from her high school for her uncooperative attitude, she is sent to a technical school where she meets Andrei, with whom she plans to escape by swimming across the Danube into Yugoslavia and then relocating to Italy. Lilu and his friends volunteer for a choir scheduled to perform for Ceaușescu, hoping this will give them a chance to assassinate him.
