My Kith and Kith. A girl and the encounter of two cultures
Lolita, a girl who grew up in Moscow, accepts her father's invitation to travel to Azerbaijan for the first time to meet her paternal family in the small Azerbaijani town they are from.
Once there, Lolita demonstrates her willingness to go beyond the cultural distances and strengthen ties with her family, especially with her grandparents, who feel jubilant about the presence of the girl.
Soon, the generational distance and the different realities of the city life and the countryside emerge at peak moments, and this is when Lolita faces her most intense discoveries during this sobering trip.
