[reklama-15249 · 6/10 · 22 April 2015]

39-year-old female Dju meets her old friend the 40-year-old Dana who has recently come back to Bulgaria after living for many years abroad and both of them decide to go to the Bulgarian seaside. While travelling another friend of Dju joins them. This is Lilly, 30-year- old. The three of them manage to find the so long awaited peace and harmony in the village of Krapets.

The original title of this Bulgarian movie is "July" as the July Morning fest which is really popular in Bulgaria. The second issue is the name of the village which gave the name of the movie according to IMDb - the right one is Krapets, but not Krapetz. Besides Krapets there are nice scenes which are filmed at the rocky coast of another famous village in Bulgaria - Kamen Bryag.

No country for young women

[Milhouse Van Houten · 6/10 · 29 May 2015]

Krapetz (July, as the Bulgarian new title says) is the first feature film by director Kiril Stankov. Three women have a vacation on the Black Sea coast and share fun, friendship and disillusion. Kasiel Noah Asher steals the scene as Dana, the older one, a would-be writer who has been abroad for years and seems to be the director's alter ego: Stankov has been studying cinema in Israel and this movie is also about the dramatic changes, not only for the good, that post-communist Bulgaria went through and Stankov perceived when he came back home. Many of the troubles in this movie are related to women's condition and as a result most male characters here are quite disgusting: a couple of human traffickers, some corrupted policemen, an embittered old man who can't play chess and a nice guy that turns out to be a coward when he's really needed. Only exception is a half-wit teenager.

POSSIBLE SPOILER AHEAD

All in all, the film is an interesting and shady portrait of modern day Bulgaria, whose only flaw is a most unlikely, Hollywod-style revenge movie finale.

Rogue One: A Star Wars Story

Bulgaria has a renaissance culture, which is inspired by the new millennium, to be precise the year of 2001, and a fascinating direction of cultural and social contradiction, obeying one word ''theatricality'', innovatively expands and desires heart pounding love, longing for Brave New World. July is an example of what has become is Broadway, confident comedy that transforms vivid experience. And there's nothing small about that. Sure, the premise is identical new generations insurgent and allegiant, comedies here we have ''One more Dream'' uses a much higher plot, animating a tired idea with a timeless script, and the result is pop humor at its most appealing wit and charm spiced with a measured pinch of farce and just the right hint of melancholy. Tom Hanks performances warmhearted sweetness in ''Big.'' from '88. July piles every known element of the action genre onto the flimsy story. Main screenplay of the main title July and high level sound does everything in this movie successfully. It's a sweet, oft-told story add a number of very sharp supporting roles. The romantic stuff is tepid. Luckily the script has plays performances on deferent country, millatary stragety undepence from the password Show me the money, business issue in America in present days, and tipical behavior of Jack Nickolson closing deal with Chineese in The Departed captivating follows future stund up comedy battles, so devestated like inspiration of J. Robert Oppenheimer "Now I am become Death, the destroyer of worlds'' approved like ''Coming to America'' is playing off each other laugh, story tale by The Prince and the Pauper.
