What happens
The Past-Master (Bulgarian: Баш Майсторът, romanized: Bash Maystorat) is a Bulgarian satiric TV comedy film released in 1973, directed by Petar B. Vasilev. The movie turned the actor Kiril Gospodinov and his character Rangel Lelin - the past-master into one of the Trade Marks of the Bulgarian film art. The Past-Master became so popular that producers were made to consider sequels which eventually happened a decade later. There are four more films released as sequels: Bash Maystorat na More / The Past-Master at the Seaside (1977) Bash Maystorat na Ekskurziya / The Past-Master on Excursion (1980) Bash Maystorat Fermer / The Past-Master-Farmer (1981) Bash Maystorat Nachalnik / The Past-Master - Boss (1983) (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
