Summaries

Movie about an endless search for an unattainable idyll, lost harmony between man and nature. The director concentrates on the inner world of his characters and the mood of nature.

Partizak is a village where the off-springs of the Genocide refugees from the Western Armenia live. There, on the other side of biblical Ararat, their village was also called Partizak. A few people still live who saw the other side, who saw "Yergir" - the Native Country. Old Mkhitar is one of them. This symbolic, religion-inflected drama is about Mkhitar's family. Through this story about a remote village and a rural family the director manages to reflect the story of the Armenian nation.—Artak
