About the film
At 40, Oumar returns to Georgia's Pankisi Gorge, an area populated by Chechens. On the plot of land purchased by his mother, he plans to build a treehouse. The construction project becomes a journey through which the director confronts his own needs and imagination regarding home/belonging and stability with those of his parents, as well as those of the traditional Chechen community.
