And this dance is swing. At least according to Sentimental Swingers – the project of Andronia Popova-Roni (to whose memory this documentary is dedicated today), Desislava Andonova, Vera Shandel and Mihail Yosifov Sextet.

Belgian director Andre Chandel, Vera’s husband, tells not only about the glamorous swing trio, which with dresses, pearls and smiles revives nostalgia for this old style; the story is also about what it means to stay in Bulgaria to work here. Through the memories and dreams of the three singers, their personal history leads to the history of a generation.
