EMIGRES
ЕМИГРАНТИ



Bulgaria, 2002, 85 minutes, colour

Three friends, Maro, Shpera and Iuri are unemployed and can hardly makes ends meet. They have complicated and hysterical relationships with the people closest to them. They seem to have emigrated from their families and their country. Provoked by a mysterious telephone call, they set out on a journey, filled with the hope to change their lives. In places the film is amusing and funny, in places sad, it investigates the spiritual emigration of young people in Bulgaria.

The genre could be called dramatic comedy. It is a sad story, but written with much humour. I hope that the actors will do it justice. In life it is the same - tragedy becomes comic if you look at it from a certain point of view.
