The Secret Helpers

2013•59m
Documentary

In the north country there are helpers. People with special gifts and abilities. In the Sámi heritage they have existed for centuries. They healed, relieved pain and stopped bleeding. And much more. The good helpers are still here. Out there in our modern world, they are hidden, sometimes hard to find - but not gone. What kind of knowledge do they possess - is it a gift, or could anyone learn how to heal?

Thus Spake Vanga

2003
Movie

А film about the world-famous prophetess Vanga with unique, hitherto unseen shots, in which she is the main character and in which she speaks only, sharing how the gift of seeing into the future overshadowed her, what miracles she witnessed in her long life. Vanga meets the tragic fates of different people, to whom she inspires faith and comfort. At the same time, with her own funds, she built the church "St. Petka" in Rupite, painted by the artist Svetlin Russev. The film was shot for years until the last days of the prophetess, leaving it to mature in the minds of the authors and is dramatically meaningful with the attitude towards it and with today's view of the presented events.
