Alienation



Milko Lazarov : 2013

A man driving an old-fashioned car is crossing the border. He is Greek and past his fifties. He is coming to Bulgaria to buy a child. The price is 10,000 euros. To smuggle the child Jorgos has prepared a secret compartment in the boot of the car masked as a fuel tank. The baby hasn't been born yet and the Greek needs to wait in a secluded house in the mountains together with the mother, her deaf-mute brother and the midwife. The birth starts during a stormy night. Milko Lazarov's first feature premiered at Sofia International Film Festival 2013, where it won the Award for Best Bulgarian Feature Film.
