A lyrical journey through Armenia, following the creation and transport of a statue. The simple telling from basic materials of the making of the clay used in the statue, and of the simple but poignant a cappella poetry that is sung as the only commentary, the film is a testament not only to Armenia‘s national poet, Ashugh Jivani, but to the integrity of art, its roots far away from the superficiality of the world, and of the power and truth it can convey.

They create a world around themselves, and thus create themselves.

The film tells the story of the talented Armenian painter Vahan Ananyan's adventurous life and artistic heritage.

After his passing Vahan's remains were buried in Tallinn, Odesa, and Yerevan. His artistic heritage remains in faraway countries.

Akhalkalaki, Armenian-inhabited town in Georgia, is depicted as burlesque and the same time tragic model of a Soviet town.
