Aramis, an Armenian refugee in the village of Nor Khachakap, Armenia, telling his story. He is one of the 400.000 Armenians that had to flee Azerbaijan during the 1988-1994 Nagorno-Karabakh conflict. The village was formerly inhabited by Azeris, who themselves had to flee Armenia for Azerbaijan. The 1988 Spitak earthquake destroyed most of the village, and the inhabitants had to rebuilt it under very difficult conditions.<br />
