    The movie was amazing, but I don't think the average viewer can fully see the absolute heroic feat these people pulled off, how close to dangerous situations they got, and how their efforts were not just a gag, but some kind of essential truth reveal. I'd love to see a documentary that could convey this!

      I mean, it wasn't necessarily "dangerous". Worst thing that happens was an arrest for trespassing or something like that, and the production would have certainly paid legal fees.
      It's not like we're in a country where dissidents go missing.

      When you can make people roll on the floor from laughter and fight to hold back tears in the span of 15 minutes as a newcomer in her first international production, it's obvious that you are more than just a decent actress. We'll have to wait for her next movies to know whether she is a superstar, but threre is no doubt that she might be, and for a young unknow bulgarian that is quite a spectacular breakthrough...
