Spoilers ahead
Railway trackman Tsanko Petrov makes a startling discovery: bundles of cash scattered on the tracks. Instead of pocketing the money, he does the honest thing and reports the find to the authorities. This act becomes a spark in a larger political game: Julia Staykova, the polished head of PR at Bulgaria’s Ministry of Transport, seizes the moment to deflect a brewing corruption scandal by orchestrating a ceremony that casts Tsanko as a working-class hero.
