The first screening of the "Screamers" documentary telling about
genocides and the Armenian Genocide, in particular, will take place
in Yerevan today.

During the week preceding April 24 it will be screened in "Moscow"
cinema.

Director Carla Garapedian has arrived in Yerevan to present the film
to Armenian viewers.

The "Screamers" is starred by Grammy-award winning band "System of
a Down."

The film tells about the trips of four members of the band, during
which they propagate the recognition of the Armenian Genocide and
call to recognize the genocide which is still being denied by Turkey
and the US.

The heroes of the film are trying to find out why genocides continue
nowadays. They participate in meetings held in different parts of
the country, organize rallies, including to the White House, share
information with their supporters and politicians. The film includes
episodes of their live concerts and stories about the private life
of the singers.

The "Screamers" are those who can never be silenced, who will continue
screaming against injustice.

During the stay in Yerevan the American Armenian director will have
meetings with different youth groups and NGOs. The evening of April 23
Carla Garapedian is expected to participate in a march to the memorial
to the Armenian Genocide victims: on that day she will lead all the
"screamers."
