Bulgarian-Finnish Documentary "Love&Engineering" Out in Bulgarian Cinemas

The documentary movie Love & Engineering by director and screenwriter Tonislav Hristov will be finally released in Bulgarian cinemas, after it's premiere at Tribeca Film Festival in 2014, the producers of the film announced on Monday.

Following the success of his movie "The Rules of Single Life," which received the public award at the Sofia International Film Festival in 2011, Hristov continues to explore the love lives of men who have little experience dealing with the opposite gender.

A major theme in "Love&Engineering" is a "scientific" formula about love, which the protagonist, IT specialist Atanas Boev, is more than convinced to have discovered.

The action takes place in Helsinki, where the protagonist, happily married after years of fear of relationships, launches his plan to prove that his algorithm for finding the perfect match works. For that purpose, he finds other engineers who are desperate for love and uses them as laboratory mice: lectures them his ideas and sends them on dates while giving them guidelines through wireless microphone.

After its premiere at 2014 Tribeca Film Festival, "Love&Engineering" has received awards from the Visions du Reel, the public award at DocPoint Helsinki Documentary Film Festival and a debut screening at the "Golden Thyton" Documentary and Animation Film Festival.

Starting this Monday, Bulgarian cinema lovers will have the chance to watch the movie in Sofia's "Odeon," "Cinema House," Euro Cinema" and "G8" movie theatres, as well as in selected movie theatres in Varna, Plovdiv and Ruse.
