Kanan Mammadov

Rasim is a theater director. However, since the theater was closed, him and the cast were left unemployed. Due to impotence, they start to engage in fraud. Since they can only play roles, in order to earn a living, these fraudulent actors are forced to create their characters in real life. That is, they see the events in real life and play their role on the stage of life.

Shot during the Nagorno-Karabakh War, "Fəryad" is only one of its kind. Following the Khojaly Massacre, Ismayil, an officer tasked with collecting the bodies, crosses enemy lines to avenge the brutal murder of a local schoolgirl. There he gets captured by Armenians and waits for the day to be exchanged for an enemy POW.
