Bori (17) refuses to be harassed by the boys. Her artistic, but unstable mother does not give her the support she needs. Her caring grandfather enrolls her in a judo school. There, she realizes that before beating others, one must win the battles within oneself.

Orlin Milchev (1987, Sofia) graduated from NATFA in 2016. In 2017, he completed a master class at Italy’s IFA, in the class of legendary director Bella Tarr. The same year he graduated with his short „Dobri“ (30’), selected for the Sofia FF Jameson Short competition, the Aesthetica Short FF, and the Moscow VGIG FF.

The film became the “Best Bulgarian Short” at the Early Bird Sofia Student FF. „The Art of Falling“ (2022) is his feature film debut.
