YEREVAN, SEPTEMBER 26, ARMENPRESS: On September 30 the documentary film
"Orphans of the Genocide" will be screened at Woodbury University
in Burbank. Four-time regional Emmy Award-winning filmmaker Bared
Maronian will present the broadcast version of the film to the public.
The event is organized by Ararat-Eskijian Museum.
As reported by Armenpress, quoting Asbarez.com, the American Armenian
famous scientist, professor, Armenian Genocide specialist, historian
and the Director of the Genocide Research at "Zoryan" Institute
Vahakn Dadryan as well will perform a speech at the event. The
documentary award-winning filmmaker Bared Maronian has already
presented the shorter version of the film "Orphans of the Genocide"
to the American Armenians and the complete version of the movie will
shortly be completed and screened.
In 2011 the shorter version of the film was granted with Telly
International Award and currently it has been nominated for Emmy
Award. The works of the documentary started with the Antoura Orphanage
in Lebanon, then passing through the Western and Eastern Americas,
come to the final harbor - Armenia. The motivation of the film came
for the article of the famous journalist Robert Fisk about the Antoura
Orphanage in Lebanon, where 1,000 Armenian orphans were stripped of
their identity and Turkified.
For the film making Bared Maronian was inspired by the questions if
the hundreds of thousands of Armenian orphans left after the World
War I are not enough to prove the world that the Armenian Genocide
is a historical fact.
