a hero
Kirpianuscus3 June 2020
Obvious, it is a PR movie. The details , the too pink aspects, the heroic fight and the dream from childhood becoming truth are good proofs. But, in same measure, it represents an useful portrait of Bulgarian transition from communism to a sort of democracy. For a Romanian, like me, maybe for a Russian, Ukrainian , it is the main virtue. Not the portrait of a businessman in the domain of rose oil, but truths so, so familiar are the virtue of a film with, in essence, one sin - it is too long. So, portrait of a contemporary hero. Motivational and ...heroic, fake poetic but decent.

Damascena - rose, movie, refinery, ethnographic complex or corporate PR?
pleven4ever9 December 2018
Damascena is a film, made with the money and for a corporate PR of Stoyan Hristov - owner and creator of the rose oil refinery and ethnographic complex Damascena - Bulgaria! The plot follows the life of the main movie sponsor - Techo, a heroic Bulgarian businessman from a child to a builder of modern Bulgaria and a prominent figure in the world production of essential oils. The whole production is made like an old socialistic realism movie, seen thru the eyes of the new and modern dreamer businessman and if you're not from a film crew, local extras or the damascena refinery or complex, you'll probably fall asleep after 10 minutes...136 minutes commercial or a corporate event, a fairly expensive image PR - 2 600 000 euros official budged, and it just looks like an attempt by a successful businessman to caress his ego. Of course, every businessman has the full right to give his money for whatever he wants, and since this is private project, I guess it serves it's main purpose - PR of the sponsor! Cheers, mr. Hristov, money well spent!

Please, make yourself a favourite and DON'T watch this movie. Fiction genre.
bulgaria_mitko27 August 2020
This is one of the most pointless movies I have ever watched. There is no story at all and there is no point of watching this movie at all. There are a lot of pointless scenes and one of my "favourite" is when a girl walks from a water from a lake and no I will not mark this as a spoiler, because this scene have nothing to do with the movie. This movie have to be a Fiction movie only because of that scene.
