Directing: Mina MilevaVesela Kazakova

Synopsis

While the left idea conceived by Karl Marx gains popularity around the world, a country from the former Socialist block is torn apart by Communist apparatchiks and informers. 25 years after the fall of Communism a young Bulgarian opens her Grandad’s Secret Service file to unravel the past and find answers to why the Socialist idea had failed so badly in reality. When reading the file entitled “Beast” she realizes that the Red Beast has never left Bulgaria. In a semi-mystic dialogue with her Granddad, visualized with animated sequences she restores the collective memory of generations so far apart.
