About Troubled Road, a Man Decides
The main character of this propaganda story is a farmer Mito Petrov, who joins an agricultural cooperative, but aspires to independent farming and cannot accept the innovations in agricultural work that are introduced by the management of the cooperative. The village rich, seeing his discontent, want to use Petrov's Mito to harm the cooperative. Petrov gives in to their pressure and leaves the collective farm, but in the end he admits his mistake.
Directed by Dako Dakovski, Troubled Road, a Man Decides leans on a strong ensemble — Ivan Bratanov, Tzvetana Nikolova, Georgi Georgiev-Getz — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about drama titles of 1955.
