MEETING WITH VIGEN CHALDRANIAN AND CREATIVE GROUP OF THE FILM "PRIESTESS"
National Assembly of RA, Armenia
Jan 9 2007
On January 8, the NA Standing Committee on Science, Education, Culture
and Youth organized a meeting with the director Vigen Chaldranian and
the creative group of the film "Priestess" in the National Assembly.
As the Committee Chairwoman Mrs. Hranush Hakobyan assessed, the
artistic filming of the event of adopting Christianity in Armenia,
one of the most important realities of the history of mankind, is
not only a serious claim in the history of our cinema art, but also
a guarantee of future successes on international big stages. It is
a unique sample of the artistic embodiment of an historical fact,
which moves hearts, makes you think and causes collision of thoughts.
Many people addressed numerous congratulations, words of tribute to
the director Vigen Chaldranian, Ruzan Vit-Mesropian, the actress
casting the main character and the members of the creative group,
wishing success to the upcoming premiere first time in Hollywood on
January 28, and the film - great recognition.
The committee handed over presents to the creative group of the film.
The Youth Parliament recognized Vigen Chaldranian as the best director
of the year and Ruzan Vit-Mesropian - the best actress.
The present of the creative group of the film to the National Assembly
was symbolic, taking into account that the building of the National
Assembly was constructed in the place of Kozern cemetery and chapel,
where ashes of many saints lie, Vigen Chaldranian handed over the cross
of Grigor Lusavorich (Gregory Illuminator) in the film "Priestess"
and the collection of his all films.
As Vigen Chaldranian confessed, such tribute in his country is
of greater importance for him than the two dozens of international
authoritative prizes. As Vigen Chaldranian assured, the culture is the
most powerful weapon even in the diplomacy and politics. So, we shall
also become powerful, living in giving to the Motherland something,
and not receiving and with the conscience of doing something for it.
