Maronian introduced the film before the screening. He spoke about
the inception of the project, and his research and work on the
documentary. He noted that European and American archives were
consulted, and that "some of the material featured in the documentary
has never been circulated before."
"The volume of material was so overwhelming that we could only
feature a fraction in the film. To share some additional material,
we published a companion book with the same title," Maronian added.

on April 18 at 7 p.m.
