This subjective documentary tells the journey towards the home of Marie from Adana, an Armenian forcibly converted to Islam. It's a story of searching for roots and not finding them. From Adana's old Armenian memory sites to the diplomatic archives of Nantes (France) and to the disruptive searches of treasure hunters, Sweet Home Adana brings together the fragments related to different aspects of denial and forgetting.
