The organizers of the Golden Apricot (Voske Tsiran) 5th International
Film Festival are sure that the suuccessful realization of the newly -
born Pan-Armenian Film Project will create Armenian and Panarmenian
cinematographic environment. Moreover, it is by this very initiative
that Armenia will have a place in the world cinema sphere. Famed
Armenain and abroad - living Armenain cinematographic figures who
take part in the program wish to make the film festival the cultural
platform where creative conceptions and qualified film production
will be periodically born.
On July 19, during the meeting of Armenian film directors cimena
critic Davit Mouradian noted that the Panarmenian Film Project forum
is one of the most interesting and cleverest ways of providing the
progress of Armenian cimena. According to him, "each of the Armenian
directors living and creating in different parts of the world bears
inside not only the Armenian essence but also the experience of the
culture in which he lives and creates".
And celebrated Canadian Armenian film director Atom Egoyan considered
the project realizeable, "The beauty of the project is in the fact
that several individual handwritings can be seen in one film. For us
this project is a challenge. We should think how we can rouse interest
in the world audience.
The problem is how directors will be able to cover their individual
expenditures".
Famous film director Roman Balayan who lives in Russia, sees the main
problem of the project in the script. "The most difficult period will
be when the script is ready: agreements, disagreements". Roman Balayan
didn't agree to the two names of a feature film and a documentary
decided in advance, "I didn't like the so-called grave Armenian themes
of "land" and "home". Not long ago a poor man was selling something at
the hotel. I came up to him, talked to him. It was a wonderful person,
a very good man. The film could be shot about him also. Do only the
Armenians have home and land in the world?"
At the end of the meeting Roman Balayan addressed to those who are
going to work at the films, saying, "The world isn't so interested
in how we cry as it is in how we laugh".
