  • A film about the former Communist Party House in the center of Sofia, with its huge spaces and endless corridors, its granite, marble and carved oak desks. Its five-pointed stars, hammers, sickles… And emptiness. The people who commanded our destinies are no longer here. A well-known sniggering laughter hounts the silent offices and corridors. All of this is situated on top of the ruins of the busiest commercial part of pre-war Sofia, on top of the ruins of countless altered human lives. However, everything passes. Lenin and Dimitrov are down from the piedestals. The Citadel, tarnished by the smoke of an incendiary attempt, is shaded by young trees…
