Russian Film – Winner of Sofia Festival


15.03.2010

One War directed by Russian and filmmaker Vera Glagoleva has won the Grand Prix at The 14th Sofia International Film Festival in Bulgaria. The film narrates the drama of five Soviet women, who live in isolation on a small island together with their children, fathered by Nazi soldiers.

According to Vera Glagoleva, she wanted to resurrect forgotten chapters of Russia’s turbulent past. “Unfortunately, the reality was much more horrible, than we imagine…I made this film for people to remember the history of their country,” she said.

A special award was given the Russian film director Sergei Solovyov for his version of “Anna Karenina”.

Sofia International Film Festival featured over a hundred full-length films, over 80 short films and about 40 documentaries from various countries.
