I, Who Love You is an emotional and multilayered monodrama, conceived and performed by Darin Angelov, telling an extraordinary love story set against the backdrop of war. Yana Borisova’s text, directed by Dimitar Kotsev – Shosho, constructs a world in which fear and love confront each other like two elemental forces shaping human destiny.

Somewhere in a large European city, during a time of general mobilization, a young man named Alexander makes a desperate choice — he disguises himself as a woman to avoid being sent to the front. Thus, Bela is born: a fictional identity that gradually begins to take on a life of its own. In a new city, Bela lives as the fiancée of a man who has been sent to war and begins writing letters to him. The replies — whether real or imagined — slowly blur the line between truth and fiction. And within this imagined correspondence, a real love begins to emerge.

The performance traces the inner journey of a young soul who survives by immersing themselves in a reality of their own creation. With a sense of humor, candor, and painful sincerity, the stage narrative raises questions about identity, fear, self-sacrifice, and the right to love in a world torn apart by war.

I, Who Love You is at once a humorous and profound story — about a person who saves themselves through imagination, and about a love that proves stronger than fear and more real than any mask.
