The Big Boredom

"The Big Boredom" is first of all a modern film, and then it is everything else - adventure, intelligence, spy, etc. Compared to the novel in the film, everything is condensed in a condensed dramatic form, the situation is exacerbated, the two main characters are in a direct battle of life and death, they have put everything on a decisive card and there is no possibility of retreat. I do not want to tell the story to keep the curiosity of the audience, but I emphasize that the film is completely in line with the genre. However, our aim is not to stay in the standards, but to fill the action with other content, and it gives meaning to everything else. " Metodi Andonov
