Life and career


The brother of the director Georgi [bg], Branev graduated in law at the Sofia University, and then studied film directing in Berlin.[1] From 1957 he was active as a screenwriter at Boyana Film,[1] and in 1983 he made his directorial film debut with Hotel Central, which was entered into the competition at the 40th Venice International Film Festival to large critical acclaim.[2]

Branev was also active as a columnist and film critic, working for prominent publications such as Narodna kultura [bg] and Narodna mladezh [bg].[1] In 1997 he moved to Canada, where he mainly focused on his literary activity.[1] His 2007 semi-autobiographical novel Sledeniyat chovek (Следеният човек, "The tracked man"), raised a critical stir and large controversies in his home country.[1][3]
