To Sofia, with love / За София, с любов
A film by Martin Grahovski & Petar Tuhchiev
Oftentimes we forget about the beauty of our city. We become entirely fixated on how late a bus line might be one day, whether that pothole we saw last month has been fixed, or angry that our expectations at a large event weren’t met. In the end, the city we want to live in is the one we construct. It’s one molded by hope, love, and, sometimes, the smell of lilac trees in early spring. This is our love letter to Sofia - a city that neither of us grew up in, but one that, like a letter from a forgotten love, we’ve read over and over again and reminded ourselves of how, for that one moment in time, we saw everything brighter, happier, and, in a way, endless.
This is the start of a conversation.
We hope you’ll fall in love as well, whether that be for 12 minutes or a lifetime.
The film "To Sofia, With Love" aims to increase the curiosity of future tourists to the city and is supported by Mastercard as part of the brand's initiative to digitize the stories of Sofia and its people that have not been told around the world. It is a personal and documentary story of iconic and distinctive urban symbols of Sofia and a culmination of the #soWelcometoSofia project on the #soSofia platform, which explores 30 of the most characteristic symbols from antiquity, modernity and nature of Sofia and presents them to arriving tourists in a rough installation at Terminal 2 of Sofia Airport. The project was implemented with the support of the cultural heritage socialization program of the Sofia Municipality, Sofia Airport and Mastercard.

Гмурнахме във вековната история на града ни, за да се върнем до далечните времена пр. Хр., и се влюбихме в откритията, които направихме за най-късата пешеходна улица в София - „Малко Търново“ - пресечна точка на истории още от 4500 г. пр.н.е., през Възраждането, Царска България и бохемските години на бар „Луна“, до наши дни.

    Благодаря за тези чудесни кадри и споделени емоции. Моят поглед към града е идентичен, с една забележка - става твърде преуплътнен със сгради, което важи и за други големи наши градове. Иначе е чудесно място във всяко едно отношение, както сте показали. Определено съм благодарен на шанса да живея тук.

    It turned out very nice, with nice shots and a pretty story, of course as a Bulgarian we are very critical, but it is hard to put all Sofia is in 12 minutes. For me, it is the best city to live in within Bulgaria. The saddest part is that the Vitosha mountain tourist infrastructure is not even near to what it should be for a mountain that is next to the capital city.

Sofia is the place where I experienced freedom for the first time. Even though I have not lived there for long, I know I will always be back. Always wanting to stay longer than the last time. :)

    Sofia natives think of themselves as superior to other Bulgarians. They hate regional dialects of Bulgarian that are not similar to their west Bulgarian dialect and can be quite vocal about this sometimes, especially the elder generation. They can be seen and heard mocking other regional dialects of Bulgarian and will usually label speakers of such a dialect as “villagers” by which they mean something like the US rednecks. Also the air in the city is one of the most polluted in the world. The traffic is awful and interactions between people are usually fast paced and can often feel tense. Whether is among the worst in Bulgaria, it’s always cold. If you want a good looking and sunny city with easygoing people, great atmosphere and an incredible night life, go to Varna ☀️🌊😎

    I’m not Bulgarian but have lived in Sofia on & off since 2011. I know many locals may feel this is not representative of the true reality of the city but for me you captured the very essence of what I see, feel & experience in Sofia. The golden light, warm interpersonal connections, poetic adventure and vibrancy engulfs me every time leaving my own home city of Melbourne Australia quite lack lustre to return to. I loved this film and see Sofia through the same positive rose tinted lens, there’s a lot of hardship and negatives to every city, but we must not overlook the beauty, or we may lose the good we have in the race to better ourselves & instead become a plastic city with no heart.

    Too polished, not reflecting the vibrant, though mostly ugly reality we live in.....don`t like, when the reality is not reflected properly. What`s presented here is emotional, but it looks like an advertisement of something, that doesn`t fit the expectations, when you buy it, that doesn`t reflect the value for money....

      It is also very personal, it is not cool to judge and say it is not real. The creator sees the city this way, and this is OK

    It’s trying a bit too hard hipster guy. Do you plan on ignoring the soviet style flats that most of us live in….big mistake. The best part of Berlin is not the pretty centre but the grungy eastern side. Don’t ignore the ugly, it’s got it’s own value. Gems are only precious because they are hard to find.

    Great work. I am afraid it doesn’t really capture the true spirit of the city though… visitors expecting to see the same stuff in real life would be a bit disappointed, I’m afraid I’d urge us to be more open about the reality (and also to do a bit more to change it for the better!)

    Добре се е получило, но човек не трябва да забравя от къде е тръгнал … Такъв късометражен филм трябва да се направи за родните градове, за местата, които тънат в забрава, а не за град, който е пълен с провинционалисти, с почти никаква история и забързано ежедневие

    I'm seriously stunned. I recognized somebody in the video I know, and I also really love Coffee Syndicate, which I found hilarious to see in there. I also knew this Barber, as we have walked past by it and thought: "Wow, that looks great". The film leaves me in a want to explore the city even more. I am so amazed! And don't get me started on the production quality. The quality is outstanding! The warm look feels like a hug from summer itself. The frequent drone shots let you dive even deeper into the city. Absolutely breathtaking video! Loved it!
