Short Description: What they could take with them, they took is a film that evolved from an old story and an old coin. The coin was minted in Constantinople in 1808. However the story started in the beginning of 1900, when the family of my great-grandfather was forced to emigrate from Turkey to Bulgaria due to various political changes in the Balkan region at that time.
