Twenty years ago the director Rangel Valchanov assembled twenty-six young actors and actresses for his film A SEGA NAKADE? In the film the participants of a casting were manipulated by an anonymous committee, nobody was allowed to leave the hall. Now the participants meet again to reflect upon opportunities taken and missed, as well as the changes that have taken place in Bulgaria. On this occasion the setting is controlled by a businessman and the protagonists are no longer standing behind closed doors, the compound however is still supervised, this time by a private security firm.
An unusual cinematic experiment on the “Wende”-generation and the acting profession.
