This is a twelve-episode series about a lawyer and his two young associates taking seemingly straightforward court cases. Yet in the course of trial investigation each case exhibits inconsistencies, which culminate in a surprising, yet logical twist.
The stories are told in a careful, witty and sensitive way. There's a lot of warmth in the relationship between the characters, giving a pleasant sense of comfort while watching. The series lacks excessive tiresome drama, fake action scenes or vulgar language.
"Kantora Mitrani" appeared as one of the first in a wave of new Bulgarian TV series, evolving at the beginning of the 2010s. What personally draws me back to it over and over again is that, unlike other TV products, which focus on tropes like harsh post-Soviet reality/moral degradation/psycho-social deviation/sex, drugs, exploitation, prostitution, violence etc., this one focuses on people of normal intelligence with good education and values. The series doesn't underestimate the viewer and provides a very pleasant slice-of-Sofia-urban-life feeling, complimented by the fine acting of everyone involved as well as a wonderful production.
