The Good Driver

Ivan, a Bulgarian taxi driver living at the Golden Sands tourist resort, is saving money in order to go back to Finland to meet his wife and son, and to make amends for his past mistakes.

Money is tight and Ivan is forced to get creative in order to earn faster. This leads him into problems. And if he even gets to another side of Europe, is it possible to fix what has once been broken?

"The hand of the documentary maker is visible behind the camera, which remains glued to the distressed face of Malin Krustev, constantly searching for a place in the world. In fact, the film's most beautiful shot is the one that comes closest to a documentary: a rapid sequence of the faces of Syrian migrants on the back seat of Ivan's taxi" (Camillo De Marco, cineuropa.org).
