Bulgarian film-lovers, novices and experts alike, will have the opportunity to participate in an open cinema workshop, exploring the nature and best examples of the film noir category, organized by French producer Patrick Sandrin.

The open class will be held on October 31 and November 1 at Grand Hotel Sofia.

A project of Executive Production Sofilm Patrick Sandrin and Bulgarian National Television, lecturers and participants this time include producer Patrick Sandrin, Noël Simsolo, a director, screen-writer, actor and writer, Charles Tesson, a lecturer at the Sorbonne, and Alexander Kyosev, a Bulgarian lecturer and critic.

The open class comes in the wake of the success of Bulgarian movie Dzift, directed by Yavor Gardev, a black-and-white, neo-noir, black comedy about Moth, who was wrongly convicted of murder just before the Bulgarian communist coup in 1944, but who is released on parole and finds himself in the alien world of totalitarian Sofia of the 1960s.
