Zare (Armenian: Զարե) is a 1926 Soviet Armenian drama film, directed by Hamo Beknazarian

Plot

The royal administration using dimness and ignorance of the oppressed Kurds mercilessly exploit this small nation. For this they have the help of spiritual and feudal Kurdish leaders, especially the son of the tribe leader Temur-Bek. But no hardship can kill the sense of joy in the young lovers Saydo the shepherd and Zare the maiden, before a menace faced them: Temur-Bek sees Zare and vows that she must become his wife. Neither obvious disgust with which Zare meets his offer or refusal of her parents can stop Temur-Bek. The obstacle on his path is the shepherd Saydo. But Temur-Bek has good luck: the imperial administration of the Kurds has ordered to create a "volunteer" detachment, and the shepherd Saydo, at the instigation of Bek is the first to be forcibly enlisted into this squad ...
