Yeranouhy and Mariam Aslamazians. Two sisters. Two elderly women with young glittering eyes. Two outstanding artists presenting a big number of their works to a gallery in their native town. 'Father to be proud of his daughters', - one of them said.

A film about awakening. The winter returns after the spring was already in its rights. The stork back from the warm countries touches slightly the snow on its nest and flies away. The unexpected cold costs many troubles for the farmers. But nothing could stop the awaking nature. The spring is back. A big tree with many nests on it. The Biblical Mountain is on the background. And many storks land their nests on this big tree.

My Sky, My Land
David Safarian
Armenian artist Hakob Hakobian repatriated from Egypt. There, far from his native land he was painting portraits trying to find in the faces of his models Armenian features. In Armenia he is painting also landscapes and even just the sky. Working in his studio he tells about his friends-repatriates. They by themselves, or their parents had survived during the genocide of Armenians in Turkey in 1915, and were dispersed all around the world. We see Hakobian's friends back in Armenia at their work: an old farmer with his big family, a driver, a gas-stove expert.

Mariam Aslamazian
An elderly woman walks in the snow-covered city. She buys pomegranates, grapes, pears in the market and comes home. She creates a warm Armenian still-life from this fruits and starts to paint. From the very first line on the white canvas till the ready painting we follow the work of artist Mariam Aslamazian in her studio in Moscow. She finishes the painting. Switches off the light, locks the door and leaves the studio.

A STORY OF A FAMILY, THE HISTORY OF A NATION ”A little piece of land? A whole country? A little group of people or a whole nation? What are they waiting for? Is their queue endless?” Do not expect to get all the answers. A tale of a man and a woman suffering the circumstances of a total energy crisis. Their recollections, short narratives, imagination act as aids in understanding of the story, and in understanding that core human values are shared throughout the world.
