A Story of People in War and Peace at Tribeca

A Story of People in War and Peace by Vardan Hovhannisyan (DCM 2003) has won numerous awards and has been shown at film festivals all over the world including IDFA (Amsterdam), Barcelona Film Festival, One World Film Festival (Prague), Doc Aviv (Tel Aviv) and Zagreb Film Festival. Future screenings include Hot Docs (Toronto) and the Tribeca Film Festival.

Tribeca Film Festival Executive Director Peter Scarlet comments '…what the film offers is something quite remarkable: it's made by a filmmaker who covered the war at the time, and who inter-cuts his old footage with interviews he's filmed now with the surviving soldiers…it succeeds heartbreakingly in driving home the fact that somehow we know that nothing justifies the fact of taking the precious, irreplaceable life of even a single human being.’
