A Dog in a Drawer (Bulgarian: Куче в чекмедже / Kuche v chekmedzhe) is a Bulgarian comedy-drama film released in 1982, directed by Dimitar Petrov, starring Veselin Prahov, Martin Stoyanov and Ruzha Delcheva.
This is the first of a series of hit movies starring the child actor Veselin Prahov which turned him into a star of the Bulgarian cinema from the 1980s. A Dog in a Drawer successfully carries on the popular in Bulgaria "Childhood genre", developed in the 1970s by Mormarevi Brothers together with the present director Dimitar Petrov. The film won first prize at the “Varna Film Fest 1982” as well as an award from the “Union of the Bulgarian Writers” for the screenplay by Rada Moskova who is also the writer of the next in the series On the Top of the Cherry Tree (1984).
