My kith and kin

Lolita is the one who bears two cultures, as her mother is Russian and her father is Azerbaijanian. This is a lyric and breathe taking story about a girl, who goes to Azerbaijan for the very first time to meet her father’s parents. She wants to know as much as she can about traditions, culture and mores of her Azerbaijanian relatives. Her first acquaintance with Azerbaijan is the main plot of this documental movie.
