STORGETNYA

March 2020, Yerevan, capital of Armenia. 230 meters underground, in the Avan salt mine, men and women walk to breathe easier. Physical activities and medical consultations set the rhythm of the timeless world of this underground clinic, where lives intersect and stories are told.

16 DISTRICT, 16 FLOORS, 16 PEOPLE

This is a short film featuring a district in Yerevan, where the legacy of the Soviet Union still occupies the minds and daily lives of the residents living in these huge unfinished monolithic structures built in the shape of the letters 'CCCP', as the urban legend holds.

ANTOUNI
