Entertainment Reviews:
It has the bleak realism of the Romanian director Cristi Puiu; the gently absurdist whimsy of such 1960s Czech directors as Jirí Menzel and Miloš Forman...the arresting imagery of the Russian Andrei Tarkovsky; and the epic synchronicity of Poland’s Krzysztof Kieslowski.

[I]nventively surreal virtues mark Maya Vitkova’s ambitious debut feature as the arrival of a bracing cinematic talent.

Product Description:
This cerebral drama follows the story of Viktoria (Kalina Vitkova), a Bulgarian girl who is born in 1979 without an umbilical cord. Her country's Communist leaders quickly seize on her as a propaganda symbol, leaving her embittered mother (Irmena Chichikova) unable to flee to the West. When the Communist regime collapses ten years later, mom and daughter are forced to reevaluate their relationship. Written and directed by Maya Vitkova.
