- EAVE project THE OTHER MAN by EAVE graduate Stephan Komandarev, producers: EAVE graduates Katya Trichkova and Stephan Komandarev, co-producer: EAVE graduate Oana Kelemen is in development. Inspired by the short story Makedonija from Miroslav Penkov’s book East of the West, THE OTHER MAN takes place in Sofia during the 1960s. Georgi and Nora are an elderly couple living in a nursing home, their days passing by in silence after Nora suffers a stroke that makes her incapable of speech. Georgi will soon find himself a witness to an unexpected confession: old love letters from Nora’s youth tell him that she was in love with another man. The fact that this other man, now long dead, was the complete opposite of Georgi makes the protagonist question his life and his marriage. The project received support from the MEDIA Programme and will likely be supported by the Bulgarian National Film Center.
- EAVE project ANOTHER DAY IN BAGHDAD by Maysoon Pachachi, producer: EAVE graduate Talal Al-Muhanna received production funding by MDM film fund in Germany.
