Presented by: Gregg Horowitz, Associate Professor, Philosophy Department. Bulgaria (2008) Dir: Boris Despodov. Take one fragmentary road, three suspicious national neighbors, and one mischievous filmmaker and you have the ingredients for an absurdly funny and engaging look at the new “unified” Europe. In 1997, the EU commissioned Corridor #8, an ambitious rail and road system designed to join Bulgaria, Macedonia, and Albania but 10 years and millions of euros later, progress is scarcely visible – on the project and on relieving the deep suspicions that persist among these nations and their people. In Albanian, Bulgarian, English, and Macedonian with English subtitles. Not Rated. 74 minutes. Funding provided in part by the Philosophy Department. 

Admission is FREE and open to the public. Presenters will provide an introduction and facilitate post-screening discussion for each film. International Lens, a film series with a global perspective, promotes dialogue among Vanderbilt’s diverse community of students, faculty, and staff. International Lens transcends geographic, ethnic, religious, linguistic, and political boundaries by facilitating conversation and greater cross-culturalunderstanding through cinema. This series is a partnership among the Office ofthe Dean of Students and academic departments, centers, and programs.
