Hope / 2016 / Azerbaijan / 8 min. / shortfilm / colour
Nowadays there are about 50 000 000 refugees living on our planet. They live on things that they cultivate on the land, they learn to love again, give birth to children, try to get used to the bitter bread of foreign land. They live between the past and the future, and instead of the present they have only one thing left – hope. But at the moment when the faith is almost lost, when returning home remains a pipe dream they get a small cardboard box as s gift. The thing in the box is priceless, but only banished people are able to understand that simple truth. Half can never replace the whole.
The film had participated and won several festivals: NFKF in Tula Russia, Grand Prix (Russia); 8 Vares International Film Festival - Best director (Iran); Official selection International Tehran film festival (Iran); Official selection International Asian film festival (South Korea); Official selection International film festival Lek-Bez (Russia)
