Description
Summary:This experimental film casts un unorthodox gaze at the Bulgarian town of Bourgas. Its youth culture, the stamping grounds, the sites of local pride, and the legends connected with them, the old communist monuments and their present-day use, anecdotes and serious interviews – all blend into this cheerful tour around the city on the Black sea coast. In 2004, the film won the best documentary award at the Second International Student Film Festival of Film Art in Bilchik for being "sincere, bright, bizarre, ironic, witty, actual, and free in reflecting of present-day Bulgarian voice-overs."
