In a remote village in Azerbaijan, former projectionist Samid and aspiring filmmaker Ayaz, 50 years his younger, are both cinema buffs. Realising that they share this passion, they decide to organise a screening for the villagers, but to do so, they need to send for a new light bulb for the projector. As they wait, Samid and Ayad comb the countryside busying themselves with preparations which the film depicts as offbeat, inventive, don-quichotte-like, vagabond gestures. We see the obstinacy of these aficionados, their mutual assistance, their friendship. Yet in their wake, mistrust is also growing, prompted by what appears as a futile activity. With this debut feature, Orkhan Aghazadeh films the wellsprings of a relationship lived out through the prism of cinema – this slight detour that haunts the imagination and guides bodies and souls through the world as it is.
