[Plays May 13-23 as part of the MSPIFF40 Film Festival; for more information, log on to mspfilm.org/festivals/mspiff for full schedule.] When a widowed, unemployed, sharp-tongued schoolteacher (Svetlana Yancheva) living in a small village on the Turkish-Bulgarian border finds an African physician refugee (Michael Fleming) from Mali walking on the road while hunting rabbits in Ivaylo Hristov's black-and-white, award-winning, well-written, quirky, humorous, 100-minute comedy of manners highlighted by striking cinematography, she offers to let him stay in her home to the concern and ire of the other racist villagers (Ivan Savov, Krassimir Dokov, et al.) while the mayor (Miroslava Gogovska) and an Army garrison chief (Stoyan Bochev) deal with other numerous refugees trying to get to Germany.
