The newest scenario of The Prince and the Pauper, Bulgaria-made, has won the hearts and minds of international audience.
The film by Mariana Evstatieva-Biolcheva was awarded the Grand Prix at the International Children's Film Festival in Minsk, Belarus.
The Prince and the Pauper's director was handed down the honorary statuette by Belarus Ambassador to Sofia.
The attractively titled movie, however, has little in common with the original bestseller of Mark Twain. The Bulgarian story has focused hopes of modern national cinema to revive old-time fame of Bulgarian children movies.
The Prince and the Pauper will be launched at Bulgarian cinemas January 13.
