Bulgarian with English subtitles Followed by a talk with the filmmakers Rewire Your Mind isn't about pointing fingers – it's about questioning the ways we've learned to see. The program begins with the belief that our perceptions are rarely entirely our own. Ideas of home, happiness, truth and belonging are inherited long before we learn to question them. Refusing this inheritance means embracing uncertainty. Through intimacy, vulnerability and moments of reflection, seven films expose the invisible stories we carry, asking not who we are but how we came to see ourselves that way. To rewire is to claim agency: to switch off autopilot, unlearn habitual patterns and remember that imagination is a form of resistance, allowing us to see, relate and belong differently.
