Weekly Post: Vesselina Nikolaeva








Vesselina Nikolaeva's School nr. 7 is a documentary of the first generation after the Cold War in Bulgaria and depicts growing up in an adolescent society. The country is a place, where the old stereotypes have disappeared, but are not jet replaced by new ones. A place, where young people are facing a future of unlimited possibilities to build the life they want for themselves, but where proper guidance is lacking. Contrary to western societies that are characterized by continuity and where children can easily take their parents as an example to follow, in country like Bulgarian, having experienced dramatical changes after the downfall of Communism, this is impossible.
