THERE WAS, THERE WAS NOT follows four women living in the Republic of Artsakh, an unrecognized country reckoning with the aftermath of one war while on the precipice of another. What begins as an observational meditation on women’s roles after conflict, becomes an urgent and intimate record of their lives interrupted once again by war. Their journey becomes the myth of a homeland lost forever, and the power of story to keep it alive.
