JULY 16, 14:20
By Shushan ShatikyanYEREVAN. - At a press conference on Wednesday,
Shanghai-based Armenian filmmaker Ruben Giney spoke about his
documentary to be screened at the 11th Golden Apricot Yerevan
International Film Festival (GAIFF), which is underway in Armenia's
capital city.
The film is titled Andin [Beyond]: Armenian Journey Chronicles, and
it tells the story of the Armenians' attempt to link the East with
the West. Giney informed that he came up with the idea of shooting
this documentary when he had seen ancient Armenian coins in a Chinese
museum.
The filmmaker added that over the course of the approximately
three-year-long shooting of the film, its crew traveled 80,000
kilometers, and a crew member had died of an epidemic.
In Ruben Giney's words, the film's Mexican composer has fallen so much
in love with Armenian culture that he plans to come to Armenia and
learn to play the duduk. Incidentally, this Mexican musician plays
duduk in the documentary's soundtrack.
