Chaldranyan has succeeded in uplifting Armenian cinema, which has terribly deteriorated during the 90's, to world class level. Marco Ferreri's influence is highly palpable. Official Academy Award submission of Armenia for Best Foreign Film. The film itself is a self-redemption of Armenian cinema, which has always been absent from all major international film festival scenes, along with the prevailing situation in current Armenian history, either political or socio-economical. An open invitation and an outburst call to all the dormant Armenian souls around the world to wake up and rejuvenate through catharsis for a brighter cinematic future. He that hath an ear, let him hear.
