Why Does The River Roar

Atanes Gambaryan, a resident of a border village, was captured during World War II and ended up on the other side of the border, in Turkey. He dreams of returning to his homeland, which is on the other bank of the Araks River. Border guard Armen, who is in love with Gambaryan's daughter Seda, sees Gambaryan on the other bank of the river and recognizes him. Gambaryan jumps into the river to save the drowning Piruza and ends up on the other bank, back in his homeland.
