What happens

Bulgarian Rhapsody (Bulgarian: Пътят към Коста дел Маресме) is a 2014 drama film directed by Ivan Nitchev. It was selected as the Bulgarian entry for the Best Foreign Language Film at the 87th Academy Awards, but was not nominated. There was some controversy in the selection due to Nitchev's involvement with the Bulgarian National Film Council. The film is part of a historic trilogy about Bulgarian Jewry, which also includes the films After the End of the World (1999) and Journey to Jerusalem (2003). (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
