| Summary: | A young man escapes from the school for delinquent youth with a constrained regime, where he lives and studies in his last year. He often makes this short break from the unbearable regime and attitude. This time he meets in Sofia a girl from an elite district and tries to challenge her with his straightforward manners. Acting indifferent and independent at first, Albena soon starts to seek his affection – the unrefined energy and rudeness that Rado demonstrates, invoke her love. Albena’s mother becomes quite upset when she learns about her daughter’s affair. She puts pressure on the responsible institutions to take him back to his school, contrary to their initial intention to give him the freedom to decide when to return. Meanwhile, Rado spends his time with Albena and their passion grows. When Rado returns back to his school, Albena finds out that she is pregnant. He feels betrayed by her at first but when he receives her letter with the news, he runs away back to Sofia. Unfortunately, Albena’s mother had arranged an illegal abortion and she had lost the baby. Exhausted and freezing after the several days’ trip walking and hitchhiking and struck by the news, Rado is left on the staircase in front of Albena’s door and waits for the police to take him away. Sensitive to the social differences in a socialist society between the elite and the margins, as well as depicting youth and urban culture, slang and the atmosphere in a youth detainment institutions. Clearly influenced by the documentary realism trend. |
