Il silenzio di Pelešjan wishes to portray a memory: one of the work of Armenian filmmaker Artavazd Pelešjan. A memory of his films and of their creation, a memory of cinema and of its relation with mankind, with its life, its mind, its emotions and with the unceasing, endless paths that intertwine one with the other.

The cinema of Peleshyan is the experimenting field of a form of “distance montage” rooted in the lesson of Sergei M. Eisenstein and Dziga Vertov, though conspiring against the very principles of montage set by the two greatest Russian filmmakers. The portrait of Peleshyan is intentionally built in the form of a “distance montage” too – an experimental hyperbole, a full and intense materialisation of an interior montage, resulting in an inspired and lyrical vision of Peleshyan’s world.
