Film Description:
The short documentary produced by two fourth-year students of the American University in Bulgaria (AUBG) breaks the misconceptions about motorsport in the Blagoevgrad region, Bulgaria. While being underestimated, forgotten, and yet misconceived, Blagoevgrad motorsport lives on the idea of ride or die. Professional motor sportsmen, gasoline-injected enthusiasts, and representatives of the local authorities and the Bulgarian Motorsport Federation (BMF) reveal what’s hiding under the dirty helmets and iron horses.
