  Sergei Parajanov's celebrated masterpiece paints an astonishing portrait of the 18th century Armenian poet Sayat Nova, the ˜King of Song'. Parajanov's aim was not a conventional biography but a cinematic expression of his work, resulting in an extraordinary visual poem. Key moments in his subject's life are illustrated through a series of exquisitely orchestrated tableaux filled with rich colour and stunning iconography, each scene a celluloid painting alive with stylised movement. One of cinema's most revered and beautiful films, now presented in a stunning new restoration by Martin Scorsese's The Film Foundation.

  Maria Saakyan's elegiac semi-autobiographical slice-of-life drama The Lighthouse unfolds against the backdrop of the Caucasus wars that plagued Georgia Armenia and Azerbaijan in the early 1990s. As the scope of this mass-scaled conflict extends itself to one woman's small village she is forced to drop everything move to Moscow and start over from scratch - thus bidding farewell to her hometown and way of life perhaps indefinitely. After spending several years in Moscow Lena decides to return home to the small Caucasus village where she was born and where her relatives and friends still live. The war and misery of the region are a counterpoint to the memories and emotions that bind Lena to her roots. Will she stay or flee?
