"In 2008 I completed my first documentary "From Home To Home". "From Home to Home" tells the story of Azerbaijanis and Armenians caught up in the Nagorno Karabakh conflict that started in 1989. The inhabitants of two villages in Armenia and Azerbaijan decided to exchange their villages and countries, before the actual war began, promising each other to look after the village graves. The promise is kept until now. Villagers sometimes exchange photo or video materials, to prove that the cemeteries are there, untouched and not destroyed. You can read interview with me at The Armenian Reporter newspaper in English or at the France Armenie newspaper in French."
