The film centers around the story of Arin, a descendant of an Armenian genocide survivor. Reliving the pain of her ancestors and the longing for her historical homeland, she notices the echoes of the pain in the present, realizing that history tends to repeat itself.

With her thoughts still in those deserts, the heroine tries to visualize her trauma and questions the Armenian identity, giving shape to her personal memories and the collective national memories around her.

This film was created by a group of young filmmakers driven by passion and determination to bring this story to the hearts of viewers. For us it is more than just a short film—it is an attempt to convey the pain, memory, and hope of an entire nation through imagery and emotion.

Arin’s story becomes a universal symbol for those who have been carrying the scars of tragedy through the ages, reminding the world that we must never forget, as history can be repeated.
