/PanARMENIAN.Net/ Two directors from Turkey and Armenia are set to
shoot a documentary in a bid to contribute to the rapprochement
efforts between the countries after Turkish President’s historic

Turkish director Eray Mert and his Armenian colleague Gevorg Nazarian
have been working on the project since October and they are scheduled
to start in December shooting the joint documentary which tells the
story of a Turkish boy and an Armenian girl who fall in love after
meeting on the Internet.

The project for the documentary, titled Araks, after the river
that runs along the Turkish-Armenian border, is sponsored by the
U.S. Embassy in Ankara.

The documentary will also feature stories told by older generations
in Turkey and Armenia.
