The first banned film of Armenian cinema. The further screening of the film was forbidden in Soviet Armenia because of the scenes in a brothel. The People's Commissariat of Education banned the screening of the film in Armenia, citing the fact that the events depicted in the film are characteristic of the period of Dashnaktsutyun's rule and that in 1927-1928 the screening of such a film cannot play an educational role.

The life of the revered 18th-century Armenian poet and musician Sayat-Nova. Portraying events in the life of the artist from childhood up to his death, the movie addresses in particular his relationships with women, including his muse. The production tells Sayat-Nova's dramatic story by using both his poems and largely still camerawork, creating a work hailed as revolutionary by Mikhail Vartanov.

After a crippling injury leaves her husband impotent, Lady Chatterly is torn between her love for her husband and her physical desires. With her husband's consent, she seeks out other means of fulfilling her needs.
