Director: Ovsanna Gevorgyan

25-year-old Satenik spends her days looking through videos of Armenian war captives, trying to find her brother, who went missing during the 2020 Karabakh war. She is also helping other missing soldiers’ families, who are in similar situations. All of these videos have pretty much the same plot; the captives are being beaten and then publicly beheaded. The story starts from the day when Satenik recognizes a friend’s son amongst the captive soldiers. The next thing we see is Satenik attending that soldier’s funeral, which traumatizes her to the core. The boy was beheaded. The shock of the funeral goes over to her subconscious. She dreams a nightmare about her brother, from which Satenik wakes up in a bus full of people. Two of the passengers start a fight over opening the window, but it slowly transforms into a political argument about the current situation in Armenia. Satenik tries to stay out of it, but one passenger’s cruel remark pushes her over the edge.
