2017 - January 2017

Since 1993 the border between Armenia and Turkey is closed. The countries have no diplomatic relations, road and rail links, whereupon there are almost no economic relations. But on the two sides of tightly closed borders there are relatives living, who manage to communicate with each other only with help of writings on the big pieces of paper and looking at each other through binoculars. And then, another day he gets a message to come to the other side urgently, old grandfather is dying and wants to pass him something. There are only 300 meters of the gorge tearing them apart, but to pass that 300 meters Simon has to overcome almost 11 000 kilometers. This is a tragicomic story about the influence of politics on human destinies.
