The hopes and dreams of Nagorno-Karabakh Armenians are sprung anew in the generation represented by an ebullient 11-year-old boy named Vrej, as charismatic a documentary subject as there ever was. Yet the dark clouds of historic conflict rumble again over Vrej’s beloved homeland, and his idyllic childhood is interrupted when his family flees for a brief exile as war erupts between Armenia and Azerbaijan. When the war ends, Vrej returns home to confront devastation, unexploded mines, and the new reality of having to train for future battles himself – but with his characteristic pluck, hope for a better future remains.
