A short feature-documentary film dedicated to the bright memory of Andrey Tarkovsky - the great master of world cinema. In 1965 A. Tarkovsky visited Armenia, Geghardavank. It is hard to say what he has been looking for and what he has seen there. Fortunately has fixed (on occasion) several frames (6min., 35mm, b/w) from the visit of the greatest master in Geghardavank.
