Theodore Ushev has won the Golden Palm award at the 23rd Beverly Hills Film Festival with his film "Phi 1.618". The Bulgarian cartoon artist and film director announced the news of the renowned award on Facebook.
The film has also been sent for screening at the Moscow International Film Festival, which caused angry comments on the Internet.
A day before receiving the grand prize in Beverly Hills, Ushev appeared from the US with a video statement at a press conference in Moscow and caused a sombre silence with his words: "Each of your rockets burns a Russian book. Every Ukrainian child killed is a Russian writer killed. The war destroys Russian culture. What do you need this for?".
Ushev's full-length feature debut "Phi 1.618" exposes a world bent on its own destruction. The film dubbed an adventurous dystopia is based on the script of Vladislav Todorov and his novel The Spinning Top. The cameraman is Emil Hristov. Bulgarian actors Deyan Donkov and Martina Apostolova play the leading characters.
