Since the launch of its film restoration program, Hayfilm Studio has
digitized 40 movies, says the chairman of the Union of Cinematographers
of Armenia, the chairman of CS Films-Studios Ruben Gevorgyants.

All original negatives are brought from Moscow State Film Library. The
films are digitized in presence of their photography directors so
that their original tonality be preserved. Gevorgyants says that in
the future the digitized movies may be put up for sale.

This year the studio is to digitize 150 more films. The key problem
is electricity: the high precision Da Vinci revival system often
fails because of unstable voltage.

The first digitized movie was "Men" by Edmond Keosayan (1973)
with legendary actors Armen Jigarkhanyan, Azat Sherents and Frunze
Lazarian.
