Father's Day

The show is very realistic and provides a great overview of how the fallout of a relationship can damage friendships and affect a child of separated parents. I love the view of how minor issues could be escalated and how sometimes things are twisted out of proportion. Great acting from the main characters, but missing some additional story for the group of friends around them. We really need more such productions from the Bulgarian cinema with deep dives in real social issues and how they are handled by characters, which are complex and have deep motivations and human emotions behind their actions.

A realistic show about a divorce between a man and a woman who also have an 8-year-old boy. The story tries to show all sides and I would say it does a fair job but didn't go deep enough.

I think the first three episodes were extremely good, then it's almost like the rest is written by different people, until it comes back at the very end.

In regards to acting, I think the main characters were played very well while most of the secondary ones which were in for a few minutes or so seemed to not have enough to work with. It was a problem because of the contrast - on one hand you have people who seem quite real, on the other hand you have the plasterboard ones.

There was something similar going on with the characters themselves. While the male characters were pretty well written for the most time, the females were mostly one-dimensional and only had development in the very end of the last episode.

The show overall was a bit of an odd mixture between very realistically done characters and stories and some which seemed almost like parodies (such as the scenes in court). I certainly did not like how violence was dealt with by the writers but it's the culture here - if you are a guy and someone says something bad to you or you simply don't like how they treat you, just hit them or push them and go with the "they pushed my buttons" defense.

However, I would still recommend it because it deals with very real issues and can definitely make people think more and consider other perspectives. Many divorces turn into wars between the parents, and the children are often neglected or used as weapons, and people need to pay attention to this and learn how not to do these mistakes.

This is a masterpiece! The characters are special, everything in this TV Series have been wonderfully done.

It's competently made and the acting is very good. Vesela Babinova is fantastic!
