Biography
Eastern Plays announced Kamen Kalev to the world in 2009, the film that established him as a director and screenwriter across the festival circuit. Born 8 June 1975 in Bulgaria, he grew up in Bourgas before pursuing formal training. His education traced an arc across European film schools: two years at Krastyo Sarafov National Academy for Theatre and Film Arts in Sofia, where he initially studied photography before shifting to cinematography, then a move to La Fémis in Paris as a sophomore. He completed Le Département Image in 2002, equipping him with the technical foundation that would define his visual storytelling. As a screenwriter and director, Kalev works in the literary-cinematic space where narrative structure and visual language converge. His Life Path number of 9 suggests the artist drawn to universal themes and transformation—a resonance with his trajectory from technical training to auteur recognition. Bulgarian cinema has produced few filmmakers with his dual mastery of written script and directorial vision.
