Sofia Film Fest opened

Sofia Film Fest opened this evening (March 16).

With its rich programme and the big stars who will arrive in Bulgaria, the festival returns to its pre-pandemic scale.

"I am, perhaps, the little tree of film that wants to grow up. I am the tree that reappears, again and again. I'm extremely excited to plant a tree. It's the eternal question "When is the right time to plant a tree?" and the answer is "25 years ago, today or next year." So we're going to do it today," said director Volker Schlöndorff.
