The annual film festival of the National Palace of Culture will open with the Bulgarian film "Стадото" by Milko Lazarov just one Month after its world premiere at the BFI London.
"The Herd" tells the story of Ali and his daughter Tarika, who live peacefully but isolated from their community in a Bulgarian village. Tarika has begun to develop "butterfly wings," a bone disease she inherited from her mother that has long been a source of superstition in the village. Ali supports her daughter and is willing to do anything to protect her when the intolerance in their small town becomes a threat.
