За двайсет и осемгодишния разказвач, уволнил се от казармата няколко години по-рано, завръщането към цивилния живот все така се явява непреодолимо препятствие. Всеки опит за ресоциализация е откровение. Всяка стъпка, жест, дума или образ го връщат към началото, към времето, в което реалността е изгубила формата си и се е превърнала в непознат и неуловим свят. В спомените му изплуват някогашната му приятелка, неговите другари от детството и армията, всички те отдавна изчезнали. "Довиждане, Птицо" не дава отговори, а поставя въпроси. Книгата е като пъзел, който читателят сам трябва да нареди, а картината не е ... |

Бележки на един режисьор за изгнанието, семейството и киното."Цял живот съм се крил зад филмови герои. Живеех техния живот и като разказвах техните истории, криех своя. Неразказаните истории оставаха в режисьорския бележник като в добре запушена бутилка. И изведнъж, вероятно с надеждата с това да улесня завръщането си, реших да отворя тази бутилка." Райко Гърлич "Представена под формата на филмов терминологичен речник, чиито термини са драматургично организирани като малки сценарии или като своеобразно търсене на сценарий, книгата Неразказани истории е едновременно автобиография, физическа, интелектуална и ... |
