Shot on the Border (1971)

The film is set at one of the remote outposts along the southern border, where a rather strange case is being investigated: border guard Ashot Terzyan killed a dog on foreign territory. In the course of explaining his perfectly justified action (Ashot was saving a boy from the dog), the young border guard made it clear to his superiors that a border crossing was being prepared on the other side. However, he did not present any concrete arguments or justifications. The border violation was detected a few days later. And soon after, Ashot himself noticed a man at the railway station whom he had clearly seen on the other side during the ill‑fated incident with the dog.
