FATHER-TIME Fiction | 11:45’ min. Prod. Country: BULGARIA An ever absent father has only a few minutes to teach his eleven-year-old son a life lesson before leaving him again.
Martin Iliev Bulgaria I was born in 1985, exactly 4 years before the fall of the “regime” and the rise of Democracy. I define myself as one of the children of the political transition. This specific time has greatly influenced our growth, formation as individuals, and last but not least- our familial relationships, particularly with our parents. When I was little, I remember that my father was absent almost all the time.constantly. He was so committed to the idea of us not lacking anything, when, in fact, the only thing we lacked, was his presence. 18 COMPETITION PROGRAMME - FATHER TRUST
