We have not received the forest from you and we are not going to give it to you. History is relevant in the Armenian environment to this day. Even in light of recent events – the illegal felling of trees in Ijevan – it looks very appropriate.
The story of the foundling, to whom this forest and nature became closer than those who were born and nurtured by the land of this village. In the film, there are many winged expressions that will make the viewer think. In the Master, people who give themselves to work will surely find some similarity. Honestly, I thought the movie had to end with the hero’s death: either get killed or die. Because the soul of such people cannot find peace in this mortal world.
The first part of the film is very monotonous, but it reveals the Master, his personality and his weight in the village. The picture concerns the change of generation, the change of values. The impoverishment of the human soul.
Of course, this film is often played on TV in Armenia, but I never watched it from start to finish. And only today specifically allocated time. I do not think that the picture is known to a wide audience, but it is worth attention, the good has a Russian version.
