SYNOPSIS
Despite the 1994 ceasefire, there is still no real peace between Armenia and Azerbaijan, who continue to fight bitterly over the mountainous region of Nagorno-Karabakh. More than 25 years after the war, national passions seem as strong as ever. The litany of grudges and accusations continues to clash with denial in an endless dialogue of the deaf. With the restraint that accompanies our gaze as foreigners, "Under the Same Sun" lends an attentive ear to the inhabitants of the region, in search of explanations in these young countries with ancient wounds.
