"The Armenian cinematography is flourishing. Interest to cinema has
gone up," Harutiun Khachatryan, founding director of Golden Apricot
film festival, said. In the past no films were shot without state
sponsorship whereas now there are foundations which fund films,
he said.

Khachatryan said Berlin World Foundation has allocated good money
for the Armenian cinematography. In his words, many producers are
interested in Armenian films. "The Armenian cinematography is going
to change. Many good films are produced in studios," he said.
