ՎԱԽԵՆԱԼՈՒ ՈՉԻՆՉ ՉԿԱ | Film & Talk

A group of female sappers cautiously demine the area around the »Lachin corridor« – a strip of land that provides a vital link between the Nagorno-Karabakh and Armenia. Daily risking their lives without a hint of heroism, these ordinary women quietly pursue their perilous task to bring life back to a war-torn region.



Khnkanosian’s meditative documentary takes on a pointedly feminist lens to reveal the crucial role of women as facilitators of peace in the aftermath of wars created by men.
