Изпепеляване (2005): reparto, argumento y streaming

What it’s about. Two trains uncontrollably move towards each other within temporal boundaries of a human life. One of them is taking a genial young man to his unforeseen future; he would marry his beloved; have a son; become a brilliant doctor; do his duty and save the live of enemies of the communist regime; get a 20-years sentence for that. Prison would turn out to be an unbearable nightmare; his wife would eventually give in to the tortures of the authorities and seek divorce; this would mean no one to visit him in prison. 15 years without any news about his child, only a snapshot of his family on which the tree of them are smiling and happy.

Who’s in it. Изпепеляване stars Paraskeva Djukelova as Kalina, Deyan Donkov as Inspector Metodi Stoev, Stefan Valdobrev as Enriko and Iossif Surchadzhiev as Anarchist, among others.
