Soghomon, a 21-year-old music student, went missing on the seventh day of the conflict. Using her smartphone, Shoghakat captures intimate footage of her family's emotional turmoil during their search for answers. Six months after his disappearance, human remains were found, but it took over a year and a half for the family to receive the results of a DNA test confirming whether the remains were indeed Soghomon's.
