Abstract
The paper draws unusual parallels between a Taiwanese, a Hong Kong and a Bulgarian feature film: ‘Nina Wu’ by Midi Z, ‘Center Stage’ by Stanley Kwan and ‘Scenes from the life of an actress’ by Ivan Vladimirov. Through the unrestful portrait of the actress in cinema these directors explore different tensions in heterogeneous social circles – both close (family and friendship) and professional (in the field of film production). The three directors – Stanley Kwan, Midi Z and Ivan Vladimirov, looking for an appropriate artistic expression in their works and personal style – disintegrate and defragment the fragile actor’s soul. The general dramaturgical model is related to the attempt to create a meta-biographical narrative through the language of the documentary and the subliminal.
