Operation Shmenti Capelli

2011 · 1 hr 55 mins

The title is based on the idiomatic expression "shmenti capelli" characterizing actions of people who like to shuffle and bamboozle others with superficial commitments. Karamfilov choose it as a metaphor for people with huge economic and political power. The funny comedy incorporates a tragic story in which Karamfilov plays two roles: the Big Guy and the Little Guy. Big is tied to the Mafia and the Secret services. Little is an unemployed teacher, squeezed and crushed by the system, which stops his heating and electricity, has his home emptied by a bailiff, and uses him as a tool in a game.

Director: Ivan Mitov

Cast: Harry Anichkin, Zahari Baharov, Kiril Efremov, Malin Krastev, Kitodar Todorov
