“Ali and Nino” is the story of a romance that crosses political, geographic and religious divides. Azerbaijan, 1918: though he is Muslim and she is Christian, the lovers defy their parents and marry. At first it appears that their all-consuming love will be enough to overcome the differences in their backgrounds. But their bond is soon put the test, first as she confronts what it means to be a westernized woman living in a traditionalist society, and then again when everything they know is turned upside down by the arrival of World War I. In Azerbaijani and Russian with English subtitles.
