Armenian Genocide
KCET TO PREMIERE 'LE GENOCIDE ARMENIEN' ('THE ARMENIAN
GENOCIDE') AT 9 PM
ON MONDAY, APRIL 17 - 'MY SON SHALL BE ARMENIAN' TO
AIR MONDAY, APRIL 24 AT 9 PM
KCET has scheduled its premiere of "Le Genocide Armenien" ("The
Armenian Genocide") the 2005 documentary by French filmmaker Laurence
Jourdan, for 9 pm on Monday, April 17. (The film had originally
been slated to air at 10 pm). The English-narrated documentary will
be premiering for the first time on American television. Also in
April, KCET has scheduled an encore of "My Son Shall Be Armenian" by
Armenian-Canadian filmmaker Hagop Goudsouzian to air Monday, April
24 (9 p.m. to 10:30 p.m.) "We have received very positive feedback
regarding our airing of 'Le Genocide Armenien' and we are choosing
to air it earlier in the evening to create the opportunity for a
larger audience to view this important production," said Mary Mazur,
KCET executive vice president or programming and production. "We feel
the comprehensive storytelling of the documentary and its educational
content will be appreciated by a broad range of KCET viewers."
"My Son Shall Be Armenian" follows the journey of filmmaker Hagop
Goudsouzian, who, accompanied by five Montreal men and women of
Armenian origin, returned to the land of his ancestors in search
of survivors of the genocide of 1915. Through the moving testimony
of those centenarians and the funny and touching accounts of his
fellow travelers from the New World, Hagop Goudsouzian has crafted a
dignified and poignant film on the need to make peace with the past
in order to turn toward the future. Additional information about the
films and filmmakers is available on KCET.org.
