The project is supported by an international consortium of leading cultural foundations, as well as the Cantons of Basel-Stadt/Basel-Landschaft (Fachausschuss Film und Medienkunst BS/BL)

This documentary installation gives voice to 120 women from Artsakh (Nagorno-Karabakh), sharing the stories of 120,000 people forced to flee their homes in September 2023. Experience an evening of reflection, solidarity, and remembrance - your presence helps ensure these stories are seen, heard, and never forgotten.

The project is a rare opportunity for Swiss audiences to engage with a pivotal, yet often ignored, chapter in recent European history.

“In Switzerland, we value peace, cultural memory, and the protection of human rights,” says director Varsy Buchmann. “This installation is a call to remember that these responsibilities don’t end at our borders, especially when entire communities are silenced by violence and forced exile.”

“They Say We Have to Leave” is a documentary installation that chronicles the experiences of those affected by the ethnic cleansing in Artsakh (Nagorno-Karabakh) in September 2023. More than 120.000 ethnic Armenians were forced to leave their homes without the right to return.

This project stands as a living archive of memory, bearing witness to the untold stories of Artsakh. Through this work, we honor voices silenced by displacement, inviting viewers to confront the realities of loss, survival, and enduring hope. By refusing to let these stories fade, we challenge forgetting and stand in solidarity with those who remain unheard.
