This anthology of works created by up-and-coming directors, all of whom were educated at foreign film schools, offers insight into a city otherwise widely associated with nothing more than petroleum and the Eurovision Song Contest; here we observe a courtyard love affair in bloom (QONŞU QADIN/LADY NEXT DOOR), a basement rock venue (KƏDƏRIM/MY GRIEF IS LIGHT), how lives are saved on a building site (YUXARIDA VƏ AŞAĞIDA/ABOVE AND BELOW), a search for the Baku of old which results in the discovery of the new (DMITROV KÜÇƏSI 86/DMITROV ST 86) and a clash of the secret service with the drug Mafia (ZABIT ŞƏRƏFI/CODE OF HONOUR).
