Novo selo – turist destination

Gallery L'union de Paris – Plovdiv presents Dimitar Shopov, Novo selo – turist destination. Dimitar Shopov's one-man show includes paintings, sculptures, and videos.

NOVO Selo is a legendary film, a prehistoric saga of the Bulgarian director Dimitar Shopov, created in the beginning of the 21st century and developed by his company friends.

"The series consists eighteen films and one preview, not yet shown, between the third and fourth films. This episode (Turist destination) will take place only in the form of an exhibition at L'UNION Gallery, Plovdiv on January 10, 2019. The exhibition includes gypseous models, which make not a small part of the special effects.

The film "NEW village" has a huge impact on modern Bulgarian pop culture and tourism, although no one has ever seen it, and it’s the fifth most profitable film series ever.
The main subject line, presented in the film, is based on failure and it’s inspired by the ancient Rome, Egypt, Darwin, the World, the First and Second World Wars, the period of Jura, Creta, the Middle Ages and the Bulgarian Revival.

The plot of NOVO SELO develops in a parallel-made reality created by the MAYOR of the village on the territory of the Museum of Creation in Novo Selo, Plovdiv, inhabited by dozens of different types of concrete creatures, most of them humanoids. The most important inhabitants of the museum are the Neanderthals - the only and highly intelligent for their time а man and а woman, of flesh and blood - all honorable people, created primarily to multiply and survive.

The majority of the hundreds of hectares of new-village land are not incidentally included in the ancient land of the Thracian tribe of Bessi - a democratic federal tribal formation lived in our lands thousands of years ago. The madness, that ancient people are endowed with, is an omnipresent form of energy that gives supernatural abilities to the heroes in Novo Selo, who, besides calculating it, do not know anything else. She, the main character Diddy, is an approximate image, stemming from everything feminine and embodied in itself. He - Indy is an unsuccessful hunter, more inclined to plant tomatoes, but alas tomatoes are gone.

There is also the so-called Dark Side in the movie, which arises from the inadequate attitude of scriptwriters to the film.

One thing is clear - those who use Power For Good are the last people, and facing the Dark Side are wild apes of the POLO tribe, who will one day use stones and sticks to try to conquer the native cave and end the tortured human genus.
