Courtesy of Martin Markov and Kristina Despotova “The Inspector’s Debt,” directed by Teodora Markova, has been named the winner of the €50,000 ($58,200) FFC Bulgaria and Film Forge competition.
The winner was announced at an exclusive villa event in partnership with Variety on May 18 in Cannes, organized by International Film Festival Glasgow, Female Film Club and First Draft, founding members of FFC Bulgaria.
In “The Inspector’s Debt,” Niki, a young debt collector in a small Bulgarian town, begins a dangerous war with a powerful local police officer, who refuses to repay his debt. In reality, she is his illegitimate daughter seeking revenge for her suffering. Even though he eventually settles his debt, she cannot stop – she demands public acknowledgment from him in front of the entire town.
