Plovdiv is hosting the annual festival for Bulgarian documentary and animation cinema ''Golden Rhyton'' which will last until December 19. The selection of movies is more than promising. More than 50 documentary and animated movies will compete in the competition program, and the parallel out-of competition edition "Open Horizons" will present another 18 film projects.
The event kicked off last night with a screening of the documentary "The Unwanted" (1999), which follows three personal stories during the so-called Revival Process in the mid-1980s. The film is directed by the renowned Bulgarian filmmaker Adela Peeva, who received the Golden Rhyton award for her outstanding contribution to Bulgarian documentary cinema.
The festival program also includes two discussions – on animated cinema and on documentary cinema. The Filmautor society for collective management of authors` and producers` rights in audiovisual works will present two awards for young authors under 35.
The youngest audience has the opportunity to participate in the initiative "Cinema for Students". It offers special screenings for students and teachers, accompanied by thematic discussions.
