Summary: | Duration: 00:25:00
This film portrays two women in Armenia. One protagonist is a divorcee who, forced to give up her career as an artist during her marriage, finds freedom, happiness, and creative expression in her new life; she struggles, however with social stigma and being labeled as a social outcast. The other is a widow who, nostalgic for her late husband, believes that women's happiness lies in the patriarchal male-headed household where women are homemakers. Despite their conflicting opinions, both find strength in themselves and their work, as they raise their families as single mothers. |
