The state has allocated the same amount to Armenia’s film industry
as it did last year: around 290 million AMD, as a result of which
the Armenian National Film Center is preparing to send half-finished
films and begin new ones.

According to the film centre’s director, Gevorg Gevorgyan, they will
be able to complete the following films by the end of 2010: Aram
Shahbazyan’s "Chnchik," Aram Sukiasyan’s musical "Lusapsak" (crown),
Mikail Vatinyan’s "Jannan ev Dzainnery," and Harutyun Khachatryan’s
"Chvogh Tnchunnery."

The names of young filmmakers who are behind the films currently
being produced are Maria Sahakyan, who will be filming "Alaverdi,"
and Nika Shek, whose film is called "My Poor, Dear Mother." Filmmaker
Edgar Baghdasaryan will film "Nerum."
