Script./ Dir.: Serge Avedikian, Prod.:, Dir. of Phot.: Serge Avedikian, Sound:, Edit.:
Invited to a theater festival in Istanbul during the summer, 1987, Serge Avedikian had not been able to refrain from crossing the Sea of Marmara to find Soloz, the village of his Armenian grandfather, Avedis. The scenes of persecution have always haunted him; the furtive traces of deportation in 1922 annoyed him: the destroyed church and magnificent gravestones. The dialog with the residents remained unfinished. Almost 20 years later, the director wishes to return to Soloz, to break the taboo so strongly anchored in the Armenians and Turks, and, without abandoning the past, to cast glances towards the future.

On a rural estate live three brothers, a sister, and their blind, religious mother. Three of the siblings have epilepsy, the fourth and eldest, Augusto does not, and he's about to break away from the family: he's in love with Lucia and planning to move to the city. Augusto's sister Guilia tries to frustrate the lovers, while another brother, Alessandro, hatches a far-reaching plot to free himself of his mother's demands and other family responsibilities, to give Augusto the wherewithal to leave with Lucia, and, perhaps, to pursue incestuous impulses with his sister.
