Adalat Abdulsamadov

During the late 1980s and early 1990s the Armenian minority in Nagorono-Karabakh attempted to break away from Azerbaijan, one of the former Soviet republics. Overnight these former neighbors became enemies, and simple village folk were suddenly made hostages in a complex power game. One of the Azerbaijani villages right on the border is home to the family of the peasant farmer Kerim, who has just been captured by the Armenians. The village council decides to take an Armenian in order to arrange a hostage exchange. They imprison the wounded man in the barn next to Kerim's house, where his wife and three children desperately await the husband's return. The captive from the other side of the border finds himself in exactly the same situation - he, too, has three children, he finds it hard to scrape a living together, he has never done anything to harm anyone and, like Kerim, he just wants to go back home. But life in Karabakh is far more complex now. Blood calls for blood.

Maqsad lives a simple life with his wife Giyamat and son Sohbat, but suddenly things change when his son Maksim from a Russian woman comes to see his father from Russia.

An incredible love story. The script of the film is inspired by the Lezgins and reflects the fate of the Lezgin people. This is the first Lezgin feature film in the history of Azerbaijani cinema.

This is a mockumentary-style project that humorously and satirically explores the themes of exorcism and family drama.

The film tells the story of events that occur simultaneously in a nursing home and an orphanage that are located next to each other, and the tragedy of heartbroken people - parents abandoned by their children and children abandoned by their parents.

The film is based on Jafar Jabbarli's play "Aydin".

The sudden death of his father at a dinner party organized on the eve of Alakbar's wedding, which is about to be married, creates an atmosphere of mourning instead of celebration, setting the rest of the film on a family's grieving and reliving emotions.
