Famous Armenian animator Robert Sahakyants' son, David Sahakyants
said that retrospective screening of films by Robert Sahakyants will
be organized during ReAnimania festival to mark the 60th anniversary
of the animator.
David Sahakyants added that a statuette will be created this year to
award Robert Sahakyants prize.
"We have already prepared the statuette. Its design is unique and
includes the heritage of Robert Sahakyants. Unfortunately, we have
established Robert Sahakyants prize in a week after his death. It
will be awarded annually to a foreign animator," said Director of
ReAnimania festival Vrej Kassouny.
Referring to the event in commemoration of Robert Sahakyants as part
of the festival, Kassouny said that the festival organizers have done
their best for its organization. "We are well aware of the fact that
he did not like festivals, as he preferred to work rather than to
speak," noted Kassouny.
The event in commemoration of Robert Sahakyants will be held on
September 10.
