It is an authentic “picture” (through text, sound, photography) of the life of each of the towns and villages in the Vratsa region.

Valuable records, documents, and photographs come out of the oblivion in order to be safeguarded and shown – presented in the best generally accessible way, so that they can disclose to the contemporary human the “life” of one of the most colorful and interesting, however at the same time one of the poorest and the most depopulated as of today, regions of Bulgaria. The magic of the word, the song, the tradition is now felt in a new way. The beauty and the healing power of nature acquire new dimensions. The simple and deeply touching human messages in personal stories and narratives based on pictures sound and look differently. A panorama of a world which believes in the life of the community.

The problem

Over the years, Bulgarian history, folklore, and traditions have been lost little by little. The idea of the platform is to find and preserve, through photographs, documents, stories and songs, these values from small towns and villages in northwestern Bulgaria.
