The Good Driver

Ivan, a Bulgarian taxi driver living at the Golden Sands tourist resort together with his best friend, is trying to save money in order to go to Finland to meet his wife and son. Ivan gets into trouble with local criminals and is forced to move back to his late mother’s house in his rugged childhood village by the Turkish border. This is where he starts working for the local mayor in the line of business he’s been trying to avoid. The film draws a picture of a Balkan man trying to cope with difficult circumstances and his own past mistakes. Maybe it is only friendship and loyalty that’ll help us when things get rough.
