has promised that co-producers from a number of famous film companies
such as Word & Brothers and Disney would be attending the festival,
in addition to Max Howard, executive producer of such well known
animated films as "Aladdin" and ‘The Lion King".

"Max will have a lot to say when he gets here but I am convinced that
he will leave Armenia impressed with what he sees and with many new
concepts in hand," opined Susan Breitenstein.

Melanya Moltman, from the German Embassy, noted the huge track record
of the German animation industry but confessed that the world wasn’t
aware of the strides made by German animators. "Thus, I am glad that
ReAnimani will provide an opportunity for people to become familiar
with German animation films and cartoons," she said.

Emil Lazarian: “I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.” - WS
