The Pomegranates of Nagorno Karabakh

The Pomegranates of Nagorno Karabakh

2022 · 73 min · Documentary

A cinematic recording of the uprooting and wandering of the people of Nagorno-Karabakh, using the pomegranate as its central axis; people who have counted thousands of deaths over the past four decades, and their movement in gray and rainy landscapes where no one knows what is their own, where their borders are and what their homeland is.
