🎶 “NATURAL FILM”

A delicate documentary portrait of the writer Georgi Gospodinov, inspired by his iconic novel “Natural Novel”.

📖 The very same Georgi Gospodinov who, together with Angela Rodel, brought Bulgaria its first-ever International Booker Prize in 2023 for the novel “Time Shelter” — a success in which the Bulgarian Cultural Institute London, Svetla Dionisieva and Miglena Rogacheva played a direct and meaningful role.

The evening will open with a special video address by the remarkable and unique Bulgarian writer Georgi Gospodinov.

🎼 And something truly exceptional:

the film’s music will come to life performed live by the virtuoso Wladigeroff Brothers.

🎤 Special Guests:

• Georgi Gospodinov (video appearance)

• Kalina Nikolova (director)

• Klimentina Nedelcheva (cinematographer)
