Nobody Wants the Night is a Spanish-French-Bulgarian co-production recently opened the 65th edition of the Berlinale Film Festival.

The movie tells the story of adventurous young men and women are trying to find their place in history through the winter frost of Greenland, as reported by Film New Europe.

The setting takes place back in 1908, and the movie was filmed in Bulgaria, Norway and Spain.

Among the stars of the movie are French actress and Academy Award winner Juliette Binoche, Japanese actress Rinko Kikuchi and Irish film artist Gabriel Byrne.

“I'm very pleased that Nobody Wants the Night opened the 2015 Berlinale. Isabel Coixet has created an impressive and perceptive portrait of two women in extreme circumstances,” says Dieter Kosslick, director of the Berlinale.

Why Me? is also a movie with Bulgarian participation at the prestigious festival, as the Bulgarian production team involved Chouchkov Brothers, in association with the Bulgarian National Film Center and Eurimages. The film was directed by acclaimed Romanian Director Tudor Giurgiu.

The plot revolves around a young idealistic prosecutor, trying to accuse a colleague of committed corruption. The inner struggle of the protagonist is also related to current events in both Balkan countries.

"To work on this movie with our Romanian colleagues was a pleasure. We hope that we will be able to screen it in the cinemas, and that Bulgarian TV will have a desire to broadcast, because the story of the film is told in Romania, but it is completely updated for the reality in the past 10 years and is fully up to date with Bulgarian political life”, says executive producer Borislav Chouchkov.
