Filmmakers Statement
Bulgaria is a special place for me. I discovered this while filming an incredible story of unconditional love. Marina Georgieva, or as we knew her, the 'mother of the cubs,' stole our hearts. Marina passed away in January 2021 but her legacy lives on. Only through a mother's boundless love were the lion cubs able to thrive despite all odds. Terez and Masoud were released into their forever home in the Netherlands. My wish is that Marina’s story is celebrated by her family, her friends and the Bulgarian community.
