Los Angeles - The Armenian National Committee of America - Western
Region (ANCA-WR) and the Museum of Tolerance in Los Angeles will be
hosting a screening of the film, My Mother's Voice, on Sunday, April
28, 2013.
The screening of the film will be followed by a discussion with the
film's writer, narrator, and co-producer, Kay Mouradian, its director
Mark Friedman, and publisher of the California Courier, Harut
Sassounian. The discussion will be moderated by the director of the
museum, Liebe Geft.
My Mother's Voice chronicles the story of Flora Munushian, a
fourteen-year-old from Hadjin who lost her family in the Armenian
Genocide and found her way to America to marry a man she knew only
from a photograph.
`Flora's voice is that of all the victims and survivors of the
Armenian Genocide, a story that must not be forgotten,' said Ms.
Mouradian.
The Museum of Tolerance, the educational arm of the Simon Wiesenthal
Center, is a unique institution that teaches about the bigotry and
discrimination that have plagued human history and which continue to
this day. The museum's engaging and interactive approach aims to
impress upon visitors the need to feel a personal responsibility in
making the world a more peaceful place for everyone.
`There is nothing more powerful than a personal story to bring history
to life. We are honored to show `My Mother's Voice' at the Museum of
Tolerance in a special program to commemorate the Armenian genocide,'
said Ms. Geft.
