Filmin başrolüne Fransız oyuncu Tahar Rahim´i seçmesini şöyle açıkladı
Akın: ´ Yüksek fizik kapasitesi ve sıra dışı oyunculuğu nedeniyle
Tahar´la çalıştım. Çok zor bir rolü var; filmin başından sonuna dek tek
kelime bile etmiyor... Bu filmde aşk, ölüm ve şeytan üçlememi
tamamlıyorum. Birbirine çok yakın kavramlar bunlar. Doğumdan bu yana
içimizde taşıdığımız şeytanı anlatmak açıkçası çok heyecan veriyor.
This film is based on the Armenian Genocide in the Ottoman Empire 1915, which resulted in the forced migration and diaspora of the Armenian minority. One day a young family man, Nazaret Manoogian, gets deported by the Turkish authorities together with all the other Armenian men from his native village of Mardin. He becomes a forced laborer and only survives the mass murder by chance and an act of kindness, but loses his family, speech and faith. One night the devastated Nazaret learns that his daughters may still be alive and didn't die like his wife from starvation, violence or rape on death marches. Nazaret goes on a quest to find them and travels from his small village through the Mesopotamian deserts to the sea, always looking for clues that might lead him to his children. Nazaret's epic journey will take him from Asia to America, from the end to a new beginning...
