    1915 TURKISH GENOCIDE OF ARMENIANS FILM SUBMITTED TO 2006 BOSTON JEWISH FILM FESTIVAL

    /PanARMENIAN.Net/ The Genocide Archive Project, Inc. submitted its DVD,
    1915 Turkish Genocide of the Armenians, to the 2006 Boston Jewish Film
    Festival (www.bjff.org). Executive Producer David Davidian of the
    Genocide Archive Project and Film Director Franchot Lubin of Lubin
    Productions, compiled this 32 minute enhancement of an earlier DVD
    created from Boston's 90th Genocide commemoration.

    As the Genocide Archive Project informed PanARMENIAN.Net, the 1915
    Turkish Genocide of the Armenians DVD consists of a new, powerful
    mini-documentary and three survivor accounts spanning the breadth of
    Asia Minor: Armineh Dedekian from Bandirma (across the Sea of Marmara
    from Istanbul), Peter Bilezekian from Marash, and John Kasparian
    from Van. These three survivors were subsequently interviewed by the
    Boston Globe in April 2005. The creators of this documentary have an
    accomplished record in pursuit of Genocide recognition and film making.

    The film is specifically aimed to educate students, teachers, and
    lawmakers. Hundreds of these DVD were hand-delivered to members of
    the U.S. Congress during March and April of this year by the two major
    Armenian advocacy groups based in Washington, D.C. The DVD 1915 Turkish
    Genocide of the Armenians consists of a powerful documentary and
    survivor accounts, detailing cause, implementation, German complicity,
    and aftermath of this World War I genocide. World indifference towards
    this progenitor of modern state-sponsored genocide led directly to
    its repetition by Nazi Germany against European Jews and other groups.
