A hardcore soccer ultra, Gyula, and his wife, Mariann, long for a baby. But it turns out that Gyula is sterile and when their plans to adopt also go up in smoke, Mariann does a deal behind her husband's back: they will take in the soon to be born child of a young Roma woman. The ensuing state of affairs turns all of their lives upside down. While Gyula has to continually hide the truth from his racist friends, surprises await him in his private life, and when Cupid's arrow strikes him from the most unexpected direction, he is faced with both comical situations and acute moral dilemmas.

When Mizushima saw the name "Kashiwagi" listed as one of the organizers of the reunion, he was a little surprised. Kashiwagi was ignored by everyone because of his unusually short stature and ugly appearance. Who would have thought that such a man would be the initiator of the class reunion? When Mizushima returned home, he saw Kashiwagi, who had lost both legs and was awkwardly dragging his prosthetic legs, and his wife, Kano Takako, who was hailed as a Madonna in her student days and monopolized the attention of men.

"For as long as I can remember, The Wizard of Oz has been a film that has held a magical, mysterious grip on my imagination. What I find most intriguing is that people generally take the story to be a child's tale. For me, the film has always had an underlying darkness – an evil that runs deeper than the Wicked Witch and resides beneath the polished surface. In Once in a Lullaby, I strive to bring out this darkness and impart an altered version of Dorothy’s dream, which in this case is more of a beautiful nightmare. I recommend listening to it with a nice pair of headphones or versatile speakers."

A cinematic journey through the rugged Armenian highlands, Lullaby for the Mountains is a testament to lives lived, lives lost, and a landscape that has stood the test of time. Over 15 vignettes, the film traverses the inner realms of ancient monasteries and mountains, plunging through fire, gravestone and darkness into mysterious depths untold. A silent unnamed man appears and disappears, a lone spectral figure among the rushing waters and bellowing winds. Above ground, animals graze and tree branches bend. Below, frescoes appear in the shadows, their carved faces frozen in stone. In the echoey hollows of this surreal time-space, the line between reality and dreams is far from fixed. A meditation on stillness and mood, the film pursues the limits of our sensory perception, and what may lie beyond the frame.
