Some talented people tried to make an intriguing film about one of the supreme moments and topics in Bulgarian history. Yes, there are some shortcomings but I consider them mainly due to lack of experience - Bulgarian film production being quite little. The plot is vibrant with events and a great mystery encoded in an ancient alphabet. Having read positive and negative opinions of the film, I am glad I decided to watch it. We need to have a starting point in making fiction films telling our controversial and sometimes glorious history and this film is one precious step in this process. I believe after it and the intensive discussions it has caused over internet and media, both the creators and society will be more subtle for such films.
