In one sentence, this movie is a failure. Let me, though, focus on what this movie manages to do.
It depicts a realistic picture of the worst that communism has to offer. There is no important character that has been spared of the filmmakers' grotesque description. You are not really given a chance to believe in a happy ending. So, if there is any hope in this story, then you could look for it in the characters' inability to find peace in a society that has apparently long ago lost its own dreams. For this message to get to the viewers though, we have to thank those of the actors who perform adequately (Hristo Shopov according to me) and even well (Vassil Mihailov).
I would recommend this movie to people who want to learn a little more about life under a regime of limited personal freedom and sheer bureaucracy. It may also be liked by today's Bulgarian teenagers, who will be happy to see that their parents' generation didn't lack its own problems and rebels.
