Yesterday
Directed by Ivan Andonov
Bulgaria, 1988, 84 minutes
Back into the 60s. While out there, in the West, they are listening to The Beatles and The Rolling Stones, the hippie movement is at its height, pupils in Bulgaria are obliged to be shingled, to wear full-dress uniforms and sing military songs. But for how long? A group of pupils from a language school believe they have to live differently. They are seeking for ways to shake off everything phony, to be candid with each other, to be part of a wider, much more interesting world. Some of them pay a high price, others experience cruel worldly lessons, but they at least make their best to save face.
