  • Summary

  • On this episode of (Re)Encounters, Boris and Sam tackle what is considered a classic example of Bulgarian cinema, namely 1964's The Peach Thief, starring the "First Lady of Bulgarian Cinema", Nevena Kokanova, as well as the famous (and dashing) Rade Markovic. Our hosts discuss Soviet montage film techniques as well as often used tropes in film and literature, all of which inform the significance of this film not just within Bulgaria, but also beyond the former Iron Curtain. Ranging from topics, such as the First World War, appreciation of beauty and teleporting main characters, this is one film - and review - you don't want to miss! This episode opens on a question open to all listeners, so make sure to listen till the end to make up your mind and don't forget to send us an answer on Instagram (@reencounters) or via E-Mail at reencounterspodcast@gmail.com. Have fun listening and remember to always guard your orchard! P.S. Visit gledam.bg for more Bulgarian-language films with English subtitles!
