Uprising

The film "Uprising" is based on a conflicted relationship between a father and son, each has an excuse, and they do not understand the justification of the other, although the father and son and the path they choose are not much different from each other. This topic is presented mainly in context, and in the foreground is a war veteran, currently a shoemaker father, whose kiosk, according to the new law, must be dismantled, and who does not agree with this idea and, contrary to his son's calls, is fighting.

Directed by Vahan Azibekyan, Uprising leans on a strong ensemble — Georgy Hovakimyan, Davit Gasparyan, Tatev Grigoryan — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.

The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about screen titles of 2021.
