The Grand Prize of the 26th Golden Rhyton Festival for a documentary film went to "Avantyurista" by director Anna Petkova. The latest film by Petkova, who passed away in early 2022, traces the fate of dissident Grigor Simov, the founder of the Society for the Protection of Human Rights, who lives in a depopulated village near the Bulgarian-Serbian border.
