Dear Friends,

The debut feature film “WHY I LOVE BAD WEATHER” by the director and screenwriter Yana Lekarska is the Bulgarian selection at the annual European Film Festival (EUFF) 2024, which will be held in Vancouver from November 14- 28, 2024.

One spring day, Irina (Neda Spasova) decides to escape the complicated tensions of her life by returning to the seaside town where she used to spend idyllic summer holidays as a child. To her surprise, once there she meets Boris (Vladimir Mihailov), a childhood friend she hasn’t seen in 20 years. Now adults, the two of them will rediscover the secrets of their shared past, a past that may well change the course of their futures. An absorbing tale of friendship, time passing, and second chances, writer-director Yana Lekarska’s debut feature film premiered earlier this year in competition at the Sofia International Film Festival, where it captured the audience award.
