THE BIRTH OF CHANGE Bulgaria, 2025, 112 min, color, documentary

The Birth of Change explores the transition from communism to democracy through the founding of the American University in Bulgaria. Both Americans and Bulgarians rushed into what they believed would be the adventure of a lifetime—only to completely misunderstand one another. Their plans collided and unraveled amid clashes of culture, interests, and prejudices, from the geopolitical to the deeply personal. Everything that could go wrong did. And yet, the story has a happy ending.
