Davud's Mother
Davud es un joven incomprendido que vive en una búsqueda constante de su "verdadera" familia, aquellos junto a quienes cree que volverá a sentir el amor. Un día cualquiera experimenta una serie de inesperados acontecimientos con distintas personas que le llevan a protagonizar un viaje de descubrimiento personal. Incapaz de reconocer a su "otra mitad" que ahora despierta, decide aceptar que el miedo a la muerte será siempre una constante en su vida, un hecho que le permite regresar al lugar en el que siempre vivió. Allí le espera aquello que tanto ansiaba: el verdadero amor. Sin embargo, tal vez sea ya demasiado tarde para él.
Immobile in a home where the sands of time fall to the rhythm of the rural Azerbaijani sounds, a mother waits for her son. When he arrives, their conversations circle around existential questions and news from afar. Unrest cloaks the world outside. Mother and son grow closer, silence melts into words, and life springs between them. The son leaves, and winter settles in to the forever-outdated house in which temporalities blurs and past and present beat to the rhythm of the same clock.
In rural Azerbaijan, a mother welcomes her adult son, who left home eight years earlier. In the calm rhythm of rural life, reflective silences punctuate their personal, philosophical conversations.
Birthday of a lonely woman. Her husband died years ago and her sons left her alone. She expects only a simple telephone call but nobody calls. She makes special meals but nobody visits. She prays all day but they are not heard.
