    Deconstructing the Azeri Propaganda War Against the Indigenous
    Armenian Republic of Artsakh (Nagorno-Karabagh)

    YEREVAN and NEW YORK-A new documentary - "Between Hunger and Fire:
    Power at the Expense of Lives," about the events taking place between
    November 1991 and February 1992 in Karabakh - was screened on Friday,
    Feb. 25, 2012.

    This two-part documentary recounts the shattering of the Azerbaijani
    blockade of Stepanakert (capital city of Artsakh/the Armenian Republic
    of Nagorno Karabakh), and presents compelling evidence about the
    criminal activities of the political elite of Baku - which led to the
    tragic deaths of civilians in Khojalu, including the victimization
    of women, children and the elderly.

    "Between Hunger and Fire" will counter and shed light on a range of
    misinformation presented globally by Azerbaijan, the prime motivation
    being to shift blame from those accountable (in this case, the Azeri
    government itself) for Azeri civilian deaths.

    Using a vast trove of materials, "Between Hunger and Fire" will be of
    interest not only for wide audience, but also for research and the
    academic community. The archive, assembled during the investigation
    of tragic death of civilians in Armenian-populated Stepanakert
    and Azerbaijani-controlled Aghdam region, entails grounds for a
    wider-scale film.

    Meanwhile in the United States, a group calling itself the Azerbaijan
    America Alliance has launched a massive propaganda campaign of
    misinformation on the Azeri version of the Khojalu issue. Full-page
    advertisements headlined "Khojaly: A Human Tragedy Against Azerbaijan"
    appeared in the national editions of the New York Times on Friday,
    Feb. 24 and the Washington Post on Saturday Feb. 25. Advertisements
    have also been placed in Washington Metro stations, buses, bus shelters
    and other transportation venues in Washington and New York.

    Following is the official trailer for "Between Hunger
    and Fire: Power at the Expense of Lives" (7 mins):

    The premiere of the entire film will occur in Yerevan the week of Feb.

    27 - March 3, 2012, followed by additional screenings around the
    world. The research group initiating the film/investigation reports
    that the documentary will for now be screening the film in Russian and
    English, after which it will be translated into seven more languages.
