  • It was only when Dora left Bulgaria that the young architect realised that the immense communist monument at Busludja was a national treasure worth protecting. Emanuel and Andreea, on the other hand, never wanted to leave their native Romania. Unlike many young people of their generation, they did not go abroad, but left the big city to live a rural life.

    As a Bulgarian, born in the early 90s I am also a child of the change…. For many years I thought as that’s what I’ve been told that life in the west is much better and easier. Spend some time in USA then many years in UK but finally I returned back to my roots. I love Bulgaria and the time being away made me realise the good things that exist in Bulgaria but not in the west.

    There are some couples in Romania like the one in the video, who are moving back to the country side. But the problem is there’s not enough of them and perhaps not enough community. A lot more are moving into the cities and there’s less and less investment in the rest of the country - no doctors, few schools etc, and then there’s the government, who instead of helping these people makes it harder for them to get what they need. That’s what this video should have looked into. I have spoken to many uber drivers who came back because they missed their country but wish they had not made that choice because everything has to be harder here. For every step forward we make, there’s always a lot more setbacks

      There are less investments in the countryside because the main goal of the politicians is to get rich and provide benefits and oportunities to their families. They are not interested in economical growth, they are more corrupt than ever… they just changed the way how they steal the money.

      Around Sibiu already a lot of young and also older couples who left their life in a big stressy city came and started to buy all the houses in the quiet pictoresque villages. Ten years ago you could buy an abandoned farm house for EUR 10.000,- .... now they are 80.000,- or more. Check out the situation in Richiș, Hosman, Sibiel, Cașolț, Hamba, Amnaș, Șomartin, Gherdeal, etc.
      Not to mention the villages immediately around Sibiu, that have become suburbs of the city and have all doubled their size: Cisnadoara, Șura Mare, Șura Mica, Turnișor, Gușterița, Cristian, Șelimbar, Daia, Bungard ...

    I call bs on Dora's statement that we heard nothing about Communism in school or from our parents. We sure as hell did, maybe not in the German school she attended, but the normal ones had lessons. And I wonder if her parents were a part of that regime given they did not tell her anything. Mine weren't, they were not supporters, and they told me stories of their resistance and how things were back in that time. So in short Dora sounds like she had somewhat privileged and mid to higher class upbringing that does not represent most. There is most certainly still uncertainty about the people's future and the statement of "not something current generation worries about" is a delusion. Most people have no savings, country will steal again their pension as they always do, if people get to live that long at all to get pension it will be so minimal you need to have a garden and farm in your old age. Buying property is impossible for most, and if you have property you can get cheated out of it with one wrong move, and end up being on the street. That is not a life free of worries for your stability, for young or old people. Her story about her project has nothing to do with where is home or why. I wish her to finish the project, it will be cool but again, irrelevant.

    В България умишлено символите на социализма не се премахват или реновират , а са оставени да се рушат.
    На тяхно място могат да бъдат изградени по достойни и типично български символи, които да обединяват българите за да продължат напред по пътя на развитието си , но това не се прави . Защо ?
    Защото това е начинът българите да бъдат заключени в нещастието си. Ние имаме велики периоди в нашата история , велики владетели , просветление и култура , но културата ни е концентрирана в периода на Османското владичество.
    Носии , потури , цървули , бакъри , менци ,каруцарски колела , песни , хорца , чевермета .....и спасителите ни , освободителите ни , избавили ни от тежките мъки в лицето на дядо Иван . Кои въобще нарисува тези картини в съзнанието на хората ? Кога те бяха нарисувани ? Кой измисли как изглежда българската носия ? Кой въобще създаде понятието носия ? Ние никога ли не сме имали друго облекло ? Италианците са една от водещите нации за мода и облекло . Когато обаче става дума за история те се обличат с римски одежди , които са символ на сила и успехи. Нашата измислена носия на какво е символ ? На робство ? На невъзможност сам да вземеш съдбата в ръцете си , а да чакаш дядо Иван да дойде ? Историята ни е програмирана да сме неможачи , да сме васали на Русия , а тя в замяна ни обявява за вражеска държава няколко пъти , окупирайки ни и до днес.
    Защо тези монументи на социализма не отиват в музеи на соца , или на други места в които могат да бъдат изложени , и защо на тяхно място няма новопостроени , функциониращи сгради или символи ?
    Защото всичко което се направи ще показва че е по добро от онова старото , по модерно и свободно , хората ще се устремят напред обединени в новото без да поглеждат назад , но винаги докато има "камък" да виси на шията им , той ще те тегли надолу .
    Публична тайна е че власта в България е наследена от възпроизвелите се наново комунистически семейства в тесни връзки с престъпни организации подпомагани от Русия. Това са същите хора които вместо в затвора , днес отново са на власт .
    Докато на българина настоящето му е сведено до вторачване в миналото , то бъдещето му ще принадлежи на същите тези отвратителни хора които днес все още ни управляват.

      I was wondering how did they manage to find this Romanian couple. They are the "white piquet fence" couple anyone would aspire towards in Romania. As others have pointed out there are solid reasons people leave the country in the millions. The documentary is more soft power propaganda probably meant to discourage immigration more than anything else.

      actually, most of them are decent now, bar really small villages that will be gone in a few years. Most have water and the septic tank is big in that environment, plus there is high-speed internet. I'm talking small comune in Moldova with fiber in the house. I wouldn't be surprised especially since a lot of IT people work from home, if that becomes a common thing. And the old villages slowly become suburbs with very large yards. And some of the houses are stupid cheap.
