The film depicts the poet's coming of age, discovery of the female form, falling in love, entering a monastery and dying, all framed through both Sergei Parajanov's imagination and Sayat Nova's poems. Actress Sofiko Chiaureli notably plays six roles in the film, both male and female.[1] <br /> <br />The director had claimed his inspiration was "the Armenian illuminated miniatures. I wanted to create that inner dynamic that comes from inside the picture, the forms and the dramaturgy of colour."[2] Parajanov once made a speech in Minsk in which he asserted that the Armenian public very likely did not understand Sayat Nova, but then said that people "are going to this picture as to a holiday" (Parajanov, "Vystuplenie" 610).
