Early Bird 2019 Best Bulgarian Film

War Machine

National Academy for Theatre and Film Arts Krustyo Sarafov, Bulgaria

Synopsis

War Machine deals with one of the oldest problems of the humanity - war. Painting a world not based on any particular conflict, but rather an amalgomation of several conflicts. Observing a world with no good and evil, in which war and it's consumption of life has become a well oilled machine, allows me to explore the true nature of war - the act of killing. The act of mass produced killing. The act of stripping the humanity away from the people until they are nothing more than war machines.

Director: Iva Dimanova
