The film Aram, directed by Robert Kéchian, follows the journey of Aram Sarkissian, a former Franco-Armenian activist who returns clandestinely to France. He must organize a purchase of weapons but even more so face the ghosts of an ancient attack, the one that partially destroyed his family.

Visually, Aram deploys a dark, grainy, almost documentary aesthetic, the alleys of Paris are bathed in heavy shadows, with raw urban lights. In image post-production, the calibration accentuates this harsh atmosphere: desaturated ochres, dense blacks and neon or halogen lights sculpt tense faces, evasive glances and heavy silences.
