Repeat what will be impossible to repeat…

“The idea is irreversibility. The story is about the genocide. No matter how much we interact with real people and learn about their emotions, destinies, experiences and horrible situations, if we can describe it in one phrase, the film is about faith in love and in the future. There are situations that we don’t want to remember, and there are situations about which we can talk about only once. In this case, it is our duty to repeat what will be impossible to repeat,” Narine Mkrtchyan says.
