5 Dreamers and a Horse
Aren Malakyan, Vahagn Khachatryan
Armenia, Germany, Switzerland, Denmark, Georgia. 2022, 80 min
Three Armenias are sketched out here, brilliantly and with delicacy, through four protagonists aspiring to fulfil their dream. There is the lift operator in a hospital who wants to travel into space, the farmer in search of a perfect wife, and the young feminist and queer girls who simply want to live their lives… while awaiting the demonstrations and hopes of the revolution.
