Discovering
My Father's Village
Edincik
iApo Torosyan is a second-generation genocide survivor, and an artist. This “poetic documentary” is about the artist’s roots in Turkey, an analysis of the Armenian genocide, and the relationship between Turkey and Armenians throughout history and today.
One witness in the movie is the artist’s 90-year-old aunt Nazik who recalls the bloody events in which her relatives and other youngsters were killed by the government-organized bandits.
Another witness, an elderly villager named Hamza, talks about recent economic hard times in the village, but speaks with gratitude of how his parents and grandparents cashed in the gold and jewelry to survive over the past 20- 30 years.
