‘AGA is Bulgaria’s official submission for the 2020 International Feature Film Oscar. ‘Aga has already won 24 International Film Awards to date.

In a yurt on the snow-covered fields of the North, Nanook and Sedna live following the traditions of their ancestors. Alone in the wilderness, they look like the last people on Earth. Nanook and Sedna’s traditional way of life starts changing – slowly, but inevitably. Hunting becomes more and more difficult, the animals around them die from inexplicable deaths and the ice has been melting earlier every year. Chena, who visits them regularly, is their only connection to the outside world – and to their daughter Ága, who has left the icy tundra a long time ago due to family feud. When Sedna’s health deteriorates, Nanook decides to fulfill her wish. He embarks on a long journey in order to find Ága.

“… it is on a visual level that this movie succeeds the most. The cinematography is phenomenal, taking full advantage of the beautiful tundra setting to create shots that are thoroughly appealing to the eye”, adding to “the wonderful performances and visuals that the film has to offer. The chemistry that the two leads have together is excellent. Mikail Aprosimov and Feodosia Ivanova both give very naturalistic and believable performances. Because of the actors’ strong performances, the movie is able to have the intended emotional impact.” Sean Boelman 9/4/19 Popaxiom Reviews
