The movie begins in a remote rural village in Bulgaria and zoom out to go back 200,000 years ago in time when the anatomically modern-appearing humans first came into existence. Back to the 21st century, a saga of survival of the fittest in an unequitable world continues just as it has for millennia before. Amongst unprecedented technological advances on an ever more populated and locked in alienation Earth, divides remain and while Europe is globalizing and open borders and open migration make physical distances smaller, ideological separations loom big. The movie is personal, reflective and essay-like. A coming-of-age boy speaks about his worries about the world he is about to enter. On the surface, politics intersect with offbeat commentary as viewers are taken from a rural village at the Bulgaria's border with Turkey where Christian Europe ends to the dark graffiti-covered streets around the European Central Bank headquarters in Frankfurt where divided Europe refuses to look itself in the mirror. On deep level, the narrative is personal and the story weaves together vignettes and plots threads which paint an emotionally charged image of a world at crossroads. Clouds Fly West is a story about a small meeting in a big city, a story about loss, determination, and carrying on. Written by Anonymous See less
