- A movie about the 14 day war between Serbia and Bulgaria in 1885. The story is told with a young woman who loses her child while waiting to give birth to another one. Another five men with their personal dramas are inter-wined in the war chaos, where 40 000 Bulgarian soldiers cross 300km on foot in 2 days.—whotheff
- Is a war big or small for someone who has lost his life in it? In an unprecedented march the forty-thousand strong Bulgarian Army, crossing from the southern to the western frontier of the country, covers the distance in less than two days and two nights with no roads, railway or other means of transport available - and wins the war. The film has the atmosphere of a Jacques Callot's etching - a throng of ant-like characters at the feet of Cruel Fate.But this seemingly chaotic whirl of events will clearly follow the path of a young woman from the grave of her child to the death of her husband.And there will be the Cripple - a boy with his romantic urge to die for his Fatherland dying in the most important battle in life - for human dignity.There are also the bodies of two men clinging to each other in Death's grip among the reeds in the mud. The war has made them enemies but they are more like bleeding Atlas Telamons with a peaceful sky steady on their shoulders.—Georgi Djulgerov
