The film features the Nakhchivan region of Azerbaijan as a place with unique identity shaped by mythology, history and cultural heritage for millennia.

The main plot highlights ancient legend of the prophet Noah and the myths about Gamigaya mountain, where, according to legend, the ark stopped. This approach emphasizes the region's deep historical roots, its role as a crossroads of early human settlements, and as a center of cultural development.
