Comedy. Drama A reclusive railway worker in Bulgaria finds millions in cash spilled on the tracks and turns them in to the police.

	Media	Author	Review
		Jordan Mintzer The Hollywood Reporter	"A sharply executed, superbly performed Bulgarian tragic dramedy (...) Directed with wit and structural precision"
		Jay Weissberg Variety	"Shot with flexible naturalism by Krum Rodriguez (...), the film quietly builds to a feeling of inexorable disaster, guided by terrific performances as well as spot-on editing."
		Eric Kohn IndieWire	"A simple premise leads to deep results (...) A parable that keeps expanding its themes"
		Christopher Gray Slant	"The film's rough-hewn naturalism belies an exquisite sense of pace and a sneaky breed of gallows humor (…) Rating: ★★★ (out of 4)"
		Allan Hunter Screendaily	"'Glory' has a premise that Frank Capra or Preston Sturges might have loved (...) Expertly paced"
		Leslie Felperin The Guardian	"Black humour and fatalism with a stiff shot of misanthropy (…) Rating: ★★★★ (out of 5)"
