Nurse Gana trades the ID documents belonging to her dementia patients on the black market. Driven by the temptation of making easy money and also by her morphine addiction, she finds herself increasingly struggling with her emotional emptiness \u2013 and with a fear of the consequences of her actions.<\/p>\n

\u00bbThe effects of communism in Bulgaria keep on taking its toll, nearly thirty years after its collapse. It\u2019s a reality, where you get away with murder without consequence, and a possibility for hope can only emerge when all is lost. Godless<\/strong> deals with the fall of an ordinary person, forced to act against their good conscience.
\nThe film was designed to carry the rawness and authenticity of real life. Most of the cast are non-actors, whose life is close to that of the characters. The fictional narrative of the nurse was fused with the reality of looking after actual patients. This was a way to explore both the deluded mentality of the past generation, and the skewed values of the present one.
\nThe film was shot in the province of Vratsa, one of the poorest regions of northwestern Bulgaria, situated at the foothills of an austere mountain. The hostile landscapes and local faces created a visceral atmosphere, which mirrored the brutality of the story.\u00ab
