Viktoria
Director:
Maya Vitkova
In 1979, Boryana is determined not to give birth to a child in Communist Bulgaria. But despite her attempt to protect herself from unwanted pregnancy, she gives birth to Viktoria. Born with no umbilical cord to connect her to her mother and proclaimed "the baby of the decade", Viktoria becomes a symbol of Communist Bulgaria. While growing up, she dominates her environment and is at war with her mother - the one who didn't want her. But when in 1989 the regime collapses, Viktoria's life is turned upside down and the hardships of the new time bind her and her mother together.
