Krustyo Sarafov - Pred teatralnata maska i zad neia (2013)

Cinema and photo archives take us to the first half of the 20th century to trace the life and work of one of the most famous actors of Bulgarian theater - Krastyo Sarafov. Why in the years of socialism the great actor became the brightest icon of realistic theatrical art. Is the legend of the great Sarafov really a fabrication of communist propaganda or is it just that the great talent for acting has been added to the propaganda machine? Who is actually Krastyo Sarafov? Do we need to know his work and destiny today? And will peeking behind the theater mask help us find part of the face of Bulgaria in the turbulent 20th century?
