Serj Tankian is making a documentary about Armenian revolution

The film, I Am Not Alone, is expected to be ready for the festival circuit next year, Tankian said.

 He added he is proud that The Economist ranked Armenia as Country of the Year for 2018.

 Serj Tankian was an active supporter of the revolution in spring 2018.

 

He said in the interview to New Europe in April:

 “Armenian youngsters have reinvented themselves culturally in such a way that they have become irrefutably powerful. They won’t stand for injustice the same way as their parents did but will react with understanding and love also different from the previous generation. I consider the Electric Yerevan protests the lead up to this as it was the youth that initiated the single issue protest.”

 In another demonstration of support, Tankian visited Armenia in May.

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
