Panorama, Armenia

Armenian filmmaker Albert Mkrtchyan’s drama “Dawn on the Sad Street” (2008), telling the story of an Armenian family from Gyumri of the early 1990s following the devastating earthquake and at the heights of the war in Nagorno Karabakh, will be screened on Saturday at the open-air hall of the “Zvartnots” historical-cultural museum-reserve.

The film features number of famous names, Anahit Kocharyan, Guzh Manukyan, Vardan Mkrtchyan, others.

As the Service for Protection of Historical Environment and Historical-Cultural Museum-Reserves reports, film screenings at “Zvartnots” open air hall will be continuous.

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
