About me

View profile
I am Lydia Indjova, an award-winning Bulgarian actress with Russian roots, currently based in Luxembourg. In 2022, I secured a leading role, a mother seeking revenge for her deceased daughter, in the debut feature film of the Oscar-nominated director Cyrus Neshvad, celebrated for his short film "Red Suitcase." Prior to this, I gained local recognition in Bulgaria for my role as Darina, a smart but shy archaeologist who transforms into a brilliant drug dealer in the romantic-comedy "Sunny Beach."

Having graduated in 2008 from the National Academy of Theatre and Film Arts in Sofia, my journey has encompassed over 40 film and TV projects, along with participation in 20 theatrical productions. I navigate English, French, Bulgarian, and Russian through diverse projects such as the Luxembourgish series "Capitani S02" accessible worldwide on Netflix, the Belgian Oscar-Shortlisted short film "May Day," the internationally acclaimed Norwegian TV series "Occupied," and the comedy film "Un jour mon prince," where I had the pleasure of sharing the screen with the French star Catherine Jacob.
