影評：
• 《少女艾薇》結合愛情故事與社會寫實，以一名迷惘少女為主線，片中她與另一名年輕人所感受的絕望氛圍來自醜惡的周邊環境、複雜家庭問題和不友善的人群，寂寞和社會和諧的喪失在本片有著細膩的描寫。
• 在抗拒和依附之間的優雅擺盪。
• 本片散發一種耐人尋味的神秘感，提醒觀眾總有事物是看不到的，且處於動盪狀態。
• 2011年華沙國際電影節費比西獎得主，「毫不做作、幽默、溫柔地描寫了兩個保加利亞年輕人的脫逃想像。」
• 康斯坦汀波加諾夫首次擔任編導，交出一部半自傳私密電影，兩位年輕主角安裘拉倪迪雅柯娃、奧瓦內斯托洛斯揚在他的指導下有許多動人的對手戲，證明這位新導演未來將大有可為。
Synopsis
On his way from Sofia to a friend’s funeral in Ruse, hitchhiker Kamen meets Avé, a runaway and compulsive liar. He is intrigued by her tragic stories and outlandish explanations but as they make their way across Bulgaria, Kamen becomes tired of Avé’s ever changing tales and decides to go his own way. Fate brings the young pair back together and as their defences fall away, their burgeoning relationship leads them both to confront their feelings towards death, love and truth.

Reviews:
• In combining a love story with social drama about a confused youth, the amusing
lightness of the couple’s relationship and a mood void of hope (ugly surroundings, complex family problems, the baseness and sadness of the encounters), Avé offers a discrete account of loneliness and the disintegration of social harmony.
• An unexpectedly elegant ballet of resistance and attachment.
• The film exudes an elemental, intriguing mysteriousness, a reminder that things remain unseen and in a state of unrest.
• Winner of the FIPRESCI Prize at the Warsaw International Film Festival 2011, “For its un-contrived, humorous, effortless and tender portrait of two young Bulgarians and their imaginative escapes.” …First time writer-director Konstantin Bojanov creates a convincing chemistry between his young leads Anjela Nedyalkova and Ovanes Torosyan in this semi-autobiographical and deeply personal film, proving he is a filmmaker to watch.
