Doc/Fest 2019: The Pit
UK Premiere
What at first glance looks like a beautiful spa by the sea, the people of Varna simply call The Pit. A cinematic portrait of the Bulgarian present and the investigation of a microcosm that stands for an entire society. Individual biographies, touching personal stories, interpersonal conflicts and exciting discussions combine to form a diverse picture. World views and political convictions meet in the pit and tell of social change and stagnation on the edge of Europe.
