REVIEW

Eloy de la Iglesia’s (El Diputado) latest
film is an elegantly filmed and splashy
return to cinematic prominence with
this story of a love between a middle-
aged Spanish gay man and a younger
“straight” Bulgarian hunk. Daniel is a
well-off accountant who welcomes Kyril
into his bedroom and into his life. Kyril
is a refugee from Bulgaria who has
mysterious sources of income, but an
incredible body and a charming smile.
In Daniel’s social circle this type of
relationship is common, one based on
mutual needs rather than an equal
partnership. There are two parallel
stories - the thriller revolves around
the mysterious contents of a bag Kyril
stashes at Daniel’s parent’s house, a
stolen car and mysterious bundles of
money. While the thriller propels the
film forward, under the surface is the
love story between these two men and
Kyril’s girlfriend who arrives to come
between them.

With terrific scenes in gay clubs, at a
Bulgarian country wedding and at
Daniel’s parent’s spectacular country
home, De la Iglesia gives us a truly
unique journey with even a tad of
magical realism thrown in for good
measure. Featuring ample nudity, sex
and even a trip to a male bathhouse,
Bulgarian Lovers is sure to arouse as
well as entertain. (Spanish with English
subtitles)
