This documentary tells Luben Boykov and Elena Popova’s story of love and creation. The artist couple fled repression in Communist Bulgaria in the early 1990s, finding refuge in Newfoundland. Their exile will have a lifelong impact on their work. Featuring the personal accounts of the couple and their daughter, this intimate documentary by Ellie Yonova celebrates the love of art and the relationship of these two socially conscious artists. An inspiring modern love story.
