Tracks an unknown man’s life as he sifts through memories of his youth in Bulgaria through to his increasingly rootless and melancholic adulthood in Canada.

While visiting his native country to shoot his first live-action film (PHI 1.618), animation filmmaker Theodore Ushev recounts the highlights of his life in Bulgaria and recalls the various underground artistic movements that have influenced him. Featuring archival footage, film clips and talking-head segments with friends and family, this fascinating documentary takes a personal and political dive into the teeming creative universe developed through experience with people and events by the award-winning director of LIPSETT DIARIES, BLIND VAYSHA and THE PHYSICS OF SORROW.

Six young filmmakers from Central and East Europe developed shorts about the theme of 'generation'.

While a woman makes an omelette, we learn how difficult it is to make ends meet. 7-minute short film which won honorable mention at Sundance 2009. Created at the invitation of Capital Weekly as part of the first BC omnibus film '15' - 15 authors, 15 years, 15 short films.

A film project throwing a bridge between poetry and animation. It visually interprets 6 original contemporary Bulgarian poems, each told in a different manner. Animation has no limits and very much like poetry renders visual symbols and metaphors powerful. Stories of doomed paper boats, intimate links to film genres, petty morning crimes, ice-cream hopes, urban moods, and industrial revelations are interwoven in this visual poetry experience.

Words are for meaning to be found. If the meaning is found, the words are forgotten. Where can I find a person who has forgotten words so I can talk to him?
