Goleshovo

Synopsis

This is a tale about the death of Goleshovo, a forgotten town in the mountains of Bulgaria. Here, a handful of old people struggle for survival: A couple fights with their donkey. A forgetful priest leads his congregation into confusion. A woman cheers up her friends with songs. Will their children ever return?

Composed with rigorous attention to form, this observational documentary is an austere yet ultimately rewarding portrait of hope.
