ALI with the premiere of the video for "Don't Hate Me"
In their fifth single, the alternative rock band sorts out harsh truths with perfectly polished details and an emotional scale beyond the music.
The idea, uniting ecology and dance, comes from the work of Costa Karakashyan ("Studio Karakashyan", Bulgaria) and Angel Bondov ("Greenpeace" - Bulgaria). Antonia Georgieva and Diego de la Rosa joined the directing team during a workshop for artists and environmentalists in Gabrovo. The three focus on creating publicity for the damage from burning coal and other fossil fuels on human health and nature through art.
During the event in Sofia, the creative team will talk about their joint work with Greenpeace - Bulgaria and will screen the project trailer for the first time. It was filmed near the town of Galabovo, whose residents are exposed to systemic sulfur dioxide pollution near the Brickel TPP, one of the oldest and most polluting plants in the country. The topic of the negative impact of fossil fuels and their exploitation will be presented through a dystopian portrait of a future without sustainable energy, but with all the negative effects on air, water and human health, which are already a reality in Bulgaria.

- Diego de la Rosa - co-director, co-choreographer Frantics Dance Company • Margarita Dorovska - Director of the House of Humor and Satire Museum
