Review of Zift

Zift (2008)
10/10
Slightly twisted, black-and-white Bulgarian film.
11 March 2017
Warning: Spoilers
The film starts with Lev (Moth) in prison for murder. Lel is released from prison but immediately falls into the hands of some uniformed men who want to know the location of a diamond that Moth supposedly stole.

The name "Zift" apparently comes from an Arabic word meaning asphalt that was once a popular chewing-gum like substance in Sofia, the capital of Bulgaria. Zift is a love story mixed with murder and betrayal, in all I have to say that Zift is a strong entry into the noir genre.

Highly recommended for the fans of black comedy and drama.
