Longing for the Future
“Longing for the future” is a project of a full-length creative documentary about the last war in Artsakh (Nagorno-Karabakh)․ The project is based on a 17-episode series of documentaries filmed in the summer of 2020 (a month before the outbreak of hostilities in the 44-day war).
