Canary Season, Сезонът на канарчетата, Sezonat na kanarchetata ( Bulgaria, 1993) реж. Евгений Михайлов
It s 1980. Malin is fatherless, angry, and in trouble. At 20, he s spent a year in jail for assaulting a lover of Lily, his mother. In her desk he finds a soldier s photograph and assumes he s found his father. He confronts the man, now a teacher, and gets nowhere. At home again, he mocks his mother. Finally, she tells him her grim story, from the year before his birth. We see a people s court, where Lily s parents seek justice for their grandchild to be. We follow Lily to a prison camp, to the city where she s told to inform on the only person who s been kind, to an asylum, and finally to her current poverty and loneliness. How will Malin respond to these revelations
