Following the fall of the Soviet regime, a conflict over control of the Nagorno-Karabakh region pitted Azerbaijan against Armenia, and in 2020 there was a war (the 44-Day War) in which Azerbaijan took over the disputed province. In Landshaft, director Daniel Kötter films a road movie that runs along the border of the dispute, from Lake Sevan to the gold mines of Sotk. Through an inhospitable landscape, between lakes and mountains, the director meets the inhabitants of the region who are anxiously awaiting the end of the conflict. In September 2023, the ceasefire was broken by Azerbaijan in a violent military offensive.

Landshaft premiered at the Visions du Réel festival.
