Audience Reviews

deepkino 8/10 Dec 18, 2025
The film follows the adventures of a short, bald, smooth-talking womanizer—a con artist whose power lies entirely in language, gesture, and confidence. Todor Kolev’s delivery is astonishing. His fancy words, expressions, and rhythms create a character who is absurd, seductive, and deeply revealing.

When Georgi Rusev joins him in the second half, every second becomes top-tier humor. This is not just comedy—it is a masterclass in performance.
