Who hampers Genocide Without Comment documentary screening in Armenia?

PanARMENIAN.Net - Genocide Without Comment documentary was shot over 2 years ago. It's a brainchild of director Alexander Sardoury, assistant director Vardan Pap and Der Spiegel editor Wolfgang Gust.



"The film features non-Armenian documentation presented by Wolfgang Gust and any accusation of partiality is ungrounded," director Alexander Sardoury told a PanARMENIAN.Net reporter.



The film was screened 6 times, public discussions were organized in various press clubs but grand premiere has not taken place yet.



"I have sent a letter to Armenian officials with a request to assist organization of premiere and dubbing-in. No response has come yet. Minister of Culture Hasmik Poghosyan once came to watch the film but said she is too busy. We can understand position of some German TV channels but the silence of Armenian officials is at least surprising," Alexander Sardoury said.



However, despite difficulties the authors of the film are going to ensure professional dubbing in 7 languages.
