The Cut

Mardin, 1915. One night, the Turkish police round up all the Armenian men in the city, including the young blacksmith, Nazaret Manoogian, who is separated from his family. Years later, after managing to survive the horrors of the genocide, he hears that his two daughters are also still alive. He starts searching for them: from the Mesopotamian deserts and Havana to the barren and desolate prairies of North Dakota.

He encounters a range of very different people on his way: angelic and kind-hearted characters, but also the devil incarnate.
