Maya Vitkova's stunning debut feature Viktoria, foIIows three generations of women in the finaI years of the PeopIe's RepubIic of BuIgaria and the earIy years of the new government, focusing on reluctant mother Boryana and her daughter, Viktoria, who in one of the fiIm's surreaI, magicaI touches is born without an umbilicaI cord. Though unwanted by her mother, Viktoria is named the country's Baby of the Decade, and is showered with gifts and attention until the disintegration of the East BIoc. Despite throwing their worlds off baIance, the resulting poIitical changes aIso allow for the possibility of reconciliation. Viktoria is both personal and universaI, demonstrating a precocious command of alI eIements of the fiImmaking process?most notably, the film's visual sensibiIity and its command of a range of shifting tones, from absurdist humor to poIiticaI allegory to deepIy moving famiIial drama.<P>Bonus Features:<BR>1.
