Slumber Chants

In this documentary, we will try to dive into grandmother's portraits of different cultures separated by time, place and dialect but combined by lullabies and motherhood instinct. As all traditional societies, lullaby carries the stories of people and their ancient music. It is a short song that mothers sing for their kids. Therefore, it is transmitted from generation to generation and becomes the pride of the nation and the cradle of tradition and stories that society transmits orally from generation to generation.
