Metodi Andonov

Died in 1974

Born in 1932 in Kalishte, a village in the Pernik region, he was first a man of the theatre, attached to the Satire Theatre from 1959. He signed only four feature films, from 1968 to 1973: three adapt the same novelist, two of them crime novels, and the first, in which Apostol Karamitev appears, won him his first prizes. The same cinematographer, Dimo Kolarov, shot all four. He died on 12 April 1974, aged forty-two, and received the State Grand Prize posthumously.
