The most awful of all tragedies in the thousands of years of
human history is genocide. The documentary film "Screamers" is a
manifestation of protest against hideous crime. Yesterday took place
an interview with the director of the film, Karla Karapetian. Her
ancestors were from the Van region of Western Armenia and found refuge
in the USA after the Genocide of 1915.
The "Screamers" is the first documentary about the Armenian Genocide
where it is linked with the next most terrifying human tragedies -
the Holocaust, the genocide of Rwanda, Bosnia and Cambodia.
The film was a success worldwide. The famous Armenian-American rock
band System of a Down from LA, Pulitzer laureate Samantha Power,
"Agos" former editor Hrant Dink, FBI interpreter Sybil Edmonds, head
of Armenian National Committee of America Aram Hambarian nad other
prominent people took active part in the making of the film.
