Mon fils sera Arménien

This powerful NFB documentary depicts filmmaker Hagop Goudsouzian’s
journey back to Armenia, where 1.5 million of his ancestors who were
massacred by the Turkish between 1915 and 1923. This isn’t as well
known as it should because many countries still don’t recognize this
genocide. Goudsouzian takes a group of Montrealers of Armenian descent
to the land of their forebears in search of genocide survivors, whose
numbers diminishes each year. They are all over 90-years-old today,
but they still feel the pain of fleeing Turkish assassins as kids, and
so does the viewer while watching this. (KL)
