A former hippie-turned-messiah, his wife, and their son - a wunderkind artist, writer, and inventor - flee the conservative Bulgarian society on their chaotic Noah's Ark constructed inside a crumbling basement in downtown Sofia. He Who Travels Alone examines this family over the span of a decade, offering an intimate look at their self-imposed exile into eccentricity and their dogged pursuit of spiritual growth.—Anonymous
The documentary tells the story of a family of four, confined by their self imposed exile within the conservative and often conformist Bulgarian society. They live outside the standard - the children do not go to school and the parents do not have a steady job. The only thing they care for is the evolution of the Spirit. Is this a pathological case or an exotic one? Or just yet another human story outside the frame of the big one, and yet going against it! But there is always room for the big Story inside the kernel of the small one.—Georgi Djulgerov <[email protected]>
