The Azerbaijan State Academic Musical Theater has presented a documentary "Fighting Theater" ("Man of Light") dedicated to Aliaga Mammadova, a theater lighting engineer who was killed in the Great Patriotic War, and other employees who took part in the battles. The scriptwriter and director of the documentary, director of the Academic Musical Theater Samir Gulamov gave detailed information about it: "It is obvious that we had a purpose to name this documentary 'Fighting Theater'. Both during the intensive time of the war and in the post-war period, our theater members were able to be both at the rear and at the front and did so on a voluntary basis. Among the martyrs who have written their names in golden letters in the history of our 44-day victory for the liberation of Karabakh, there is our theater's lighter, a hero. He is Aliaga Mammadov. The second name of the film is "Light Man", which is associated with the views of the martyr's family members, theater management, and colleagues. It is our sacred duty to honor our martyrs and pay attention to our veterans. May God have mercy on all our martyrs and heal our veterans." It should be noted that the author of the idea and artistic director of the documentary is an Honored Art Figure; Doctor of Philosophy in Art Criticism Aligismat Lalayev, camera operator and editor is Hikmat Shahverdizade. The film features video footage from the Ministry of Defense, Azerbaijan State Television, the Center for Strategic Communications, as well as works by prominent composers and musicians - Fikrat Amirov, Khayyam Mirzazade, Agshin Alizade, Eldar Mansurov, Emin Sabitoglu, Adalat Vazirov, Alikhan Samadov, Ali Aliyev, as well as "My Nation" song was used.
