Clouds Fly West

It all began in Africa where we, humans, first came into existence. It is going on 200 000 years later and several thousand miles away with our unprecedented development and 21st century technological advances on an Earth yet overpopulated and locked in alienation.

A film that tells the story of a small East European country, Bulgaria, the story of how we manage to walk the way from communism to our cherished democracy, but also the story about everything we have lost pursuing it.

Be amazed how multiple plot threads twist together to create a comprehensive image of the many-sided subject, how apparently ordinary seconds evolve to reveal rarely seen nuances of the seemingly colorless scenery and how all of a sudden all the details fit into place ... or simply least expected but a sincere meeting on the background of a German metropolis ...

Face global issues like Urbanization, Growing World Population and Migration raised by local conflicts. A film based on a true story about a man in unknown city, with no friend to talk to, with nothing to do for a living but to play the accordion...
