    • Synopsis
    • Bulgarian driver Petar Doychev lives for months on end in the cab of his truck.
      He is one of the hundreds of thousands Eastern-European men who roam Western Europe’s highways. He is a young father, fighting for the bond with his kid. Completely estranged by life on the road, Petar gradually loses ties with his loved ones. A Parked Life is a majestic and hypnotic road movie that takes you to all corners of Europe, and pushes you deep into the life of those living in the shadows of consumerism
