Synopsis: An open, empty plain stretches out around the village of Zara, dotted with ruins of abandoned places. Here, the film‟s characters are searching for what they‟ve lost: letters, childhoods, homes, friends, parents and children. The village of Zara constitutes the fulcrum of a quest for a safe place – a search which gives rise to the unfolding of the remembered and the dreamt; all within
the realm of the imagined present. In Zara, the Cem ceremony is a celebration of the quest for hope.

Awards: 2008: Swiss Film Awards: Best Score Film
