Malko Tarnovo Street (Sofia, Bulgaria)

Malko Tarnovo Street in Sofia, only 60 meters long, has become an iconic backdrop in Bulgarian history and cinema. Its cobble-stoned passage has witnessed centuries of conflict and resilience— from Roman times through Bulgaria’s communist era — each layer adding to its enigmatic aura. Notably, a secret entrance on this street once housed a secret police detainment center during the communist regime, where political dissenters were secretly held and interrogated. Just across the street the favourite nightclub of Bulgarian inter-war aristocracy used to stand.

Over the decades, numerous Bulgarian films have been shot here, with directors capturing the street’s authentic architecture, natural lighting, and nostalgic ambience to evoke themes of tradition, repression, and resilience. Legendary director Binka Zhelyazkova’s WE WERE YOUNG (1961) and Lyubomir Sharlandzhiev’s THE PROSECUTOR (1988) both feature key moments in this location. Yavor Gardev’s 2008 ZIFT pays an hommage to the fearsome and troubled biography of the place, while LOVE.NET (2011) by Ilian Djevelekov and BUBBLEGUM (2017) emphasize on the contemporary romantic perception of Malko Tarnovo Street. The dynamic interplay between urban space and artistic memory enhances future and present cinematic narratives and re-inforces Sofia’s status as a vibrant hub of innovative filmmaking and historical reflection.
