- DirectorIrina AktashevaHristo PiskovStarsFilip TrifonovVassil MihajlovIrina RosichThis is a warm-hearted, lyrical recollection of the period immediately before and after September 9, 1944, the date of the Socialist Revolution in Bulgaria. Against an atmosphere of general jubilation the film traces the short life of Tinko, a pure and altruistic idealist. The young revolutionary lives through a series of events in which the masses play a central role. We see a session of people's tribunal, a funeral rally, a meeting with Soviet soldiers. Tinko sees only the romantic side of this blend of joy, death and sorrow. Wherever he happens to be he wishes to play a leading role. With an adolescent selflessness and self-confidence verging on naïveté he preaches the high morality of the new civilization at mass rallies, he wants to lecture everyone he meets - his comrade-in-arms Iliykata, the petty bourgeois newly-weds at a wedding reception, the itinerant black-marketer impervious to change. Tinko is doing the best he can to serve the Revolution, but at the end he is killed. This character has gained a noteworthy place in Bulgarian cinema not so much as a revolutionary, but as an impersonation of pure revolutionary enthusiasm.

They receive him with great understanding and sympathy but cannot find the key to his heart. Torn out of his natural environment and left bewilderingly rootless, this good man cannot adapt himself to the urban way of life. He does not like the mayonnaise he is offered, does not know how to use the lift. The people hurrying in the streets seem to him indifferent, and some even sly and deceitful. He sees the city as a place full of hostile people and inanimate objects. He badly misses the warm human touch of his village.

- DirectorZako HeskiyaStarsGeorgi Georgiev-GetzGeorgi CherkelovLidia VulkovaThis is a two-part film about the participation of the Bulgarian army in the Second World War. On the eve of September 9, 1944, insurgent masses liberate a large group of political prisoners from jail in Varna. Boyan Vasilev, the central character, is one of them. The joy of liberation, however, is overshadowed for him by the fact that his wife has not waited for him. He is dispatched to the front line as a political officer. In tracing his personal fate the authors have created an epic picture about the participation of Bulgarian army in the last stages of war and the final defeat of Nazi Germany on the battlefields of Yugoslavia and Hungary. Against the background of the impressive battle scenes the film focuses on the complex relationships between the numerous characters, reflecting the social and political contradiction in Bulgaria in the end of the war, we see former career officers who are attempting to sabotage the work of military command.

- DirectorChristo ChristovStarsGrigor VachkovDimitar IkonomovBogdan SpasovThis film is a dramatic, colorful parable about migration from the countryside to the urban areas, revealing the deep-rooted attachment of the peasant Ivan Efreytorov to the patriarchal way of life.

Left alone with his father and his son, Efreytorov is resisting fiercely the imminent change and does not want to leave his native house. Though the native village has disappeared under the water of lake, it still exists in his memories. In his mind's eye he sees the mythological scenes which combine in almost surrealist fashion with his visions of the contemporary world, memories of his dead wife and images of nature in which animals - the dog, the cow, the horse - figure very prominently. After the death of his father and the escape of his son to the town, Efreytorov sees that all his ties with the past are broken. The implacable march of time compels the man of tradition to beat a heartbreaking retreat.
