    Famous Armenian animator Robert Sahakyants died in Yerevan on September
    24, aged 59, shortly after undergoing a heart surgery.

    Robert Sahakyants was born in 1950 in Baku. He had been living in
    Yerevan since 1964. Sahakyants graduated from the Pedagogical Institute
    after Khachatur Abovyan and worked at `Hyfilm' studio as an animator.

    Sahakyants is author and artistic-director of about 33 scenarios of
    animation films and over 100 cartons. The film `Road to Home' was
    Robert Sahakyants' last work. This is an excursus to our historic
    motherland. The events take place in 2050. Some consider the film is
    extremely politicized, but the author had a different opinion and
    objectives.

    Robert Sahakyants was not only a talented cultural figure, but also an
    active intellectual, who was able to analyze and express his opinion on
    most different issues.
