Bulgarian's Zornitsa dancers - CNN's Ralitsa Vassileva reports
We all know Ralitsa Vassileva – the Bulgarian face on the CNN TV channel. We all know her name and recognize her face; we have watched her reports on the Bulgarian National Television.

The last project of Ralitsa Vassileva is “very personal” (as she calls it in the advertisement for the documentary on CNN). Because this is a project about the place where she started her career and for the times that are part of her personal memories…


In the frames of the project “Autumn of Change” there is a special place dedicated to culture and Ralitsa Vassileva visited the rehearsal hall of Zornitsa Ensemble.
