"…we felt that it was an ocean of emotion that overwhelms you and charges you to fly."

On February 12, 2026, a live listening with an audience to the documentary series-radio portrait about the actor, director and theater pedagogue Dimitar Elenov – "The Author and His Faces" will take place.

The radio portrait is built on the logic of an audio collage of stories by his colleagues and students. The author and director is Rozita Mihaylova Elenova. The playwright is Dimo Dimov.

"The feeling about Dimitar, when you see him for the first time, is that you are meeting someone from the breed of extraordinary people. The feeling of an exceptional personality immediately appeared and besides being a personality, he was a Creator, the likes of which you rarely meet. He had a vision that was contemporary and progressive and remained so until the end of his life. It is no coincidence that people say that he was ageless. As if when he was young he looked older, and then he was ageless at all. He had the most agile and modern thinking. Of course, people who possess this genius are complicated in everyday life.

Perhaps that is precisely why he has so many students and people who recognize him as a spiritual father and mentor, years after he was their director, partner as an actor, or teacher. What he gave was a stable inner foundation, so that the personality would be resilient, and this was what his students absorbed in these processes. He did not simply offer preparation for the VITIZ or for some spectacle, but special inner psychological and moral foundations that you use later throughout your life - in the darkest moments of life, since everyone has their inevitable breakdowns and falls. He was able to masterfully nourish this strength within us."
