An exceptional festival as always, but what is especially remarkable for the 29th edition is the presence of Bulgarian cinema. Out of about 180-200 films in the program - feature-length and short, about 60 titles are Bulgarian. This was what the director of the Sofia International Film Festival, Stefan Kitanov, said at a special press conference.
