A Passage is a hybrid visual investigation generated in the sun-scorched valleys of Southern Armenia’s Meghri region. Not long ago, the legendary railway road connecting Yerevan and Baku was destroyed on this border territory, with a “free economic zone” due to be constructed in its place. Giving equal weight to myth, gossip, and facts, the film explores the processes of rapid militarization and neoliberalization in South Armenia, where historical layers mingle with the uncertainty of the coming future
