This homage to the Armenian director Artavazd Peleshian (1938) juxtaposes lyrical scenes from several of his films with contemporary images of Peleshian in Moscow, where he went in the early 1960s to study at the famous VGIK film school. His ideas about editing (‘distance montage’) are reflected in The Silence of Peleshian.
