“From Ararat to Zion” Awarded at the Swansea Bay Film Festival, UK

The documentary “From Ararat to Zion” won the Best European Documentary
prize at the Swansea Bay Film Festival held on May 7-16 in Wales, UK. The
Festival ranks among the biggest in the UK and aims at providing a worldwide
public forum for independent and experimental filmmakers. The film was
nominated among other documentaries produced by filmmakers from France,
Germany, Netherlands, Spain, UK, Denmark, Norway, Poland, Israel and others.
Nevertheless, this spiritual and cultural self-identity card of the Armenian
nation proved to be ‘hors concours’!
