On The Armenian Genocide

"2015 marks not only the hundredth anniversary of the Armenian
Genocide, but also the close of an entire century of forgotten
genocides," says "1915" co-director Garin Hovannisian in a statement.
"'1915' is about denial --how we try to escape history, how history
continues to haunt us. It is also about the need to face the ghosts
of our own pasts." Perhaps with his upcoming psychoglical thriller,
Hovannisian hopes to shed light on a under-discussed corner of history.
Co-directed by Alec Mouhibian and starring Simon Abkarian and Angela
Sarafyan, the film centers on a mysterious director who is staging a
play at the Los Angeles Theatre to honor the victims of the Armenian
genocide. But his work sparks protests, strange accidents begin to
spread, and it appears that the director's dangerous mission can't
escape the ghosts of the past. Check out the exclusive trailer for
the film below, which teases many dramatic elements at play.
Scored by Serj Tankian (from the band System Of A Down), Bloodvine
Media, in conjunction with Strongman and mTuckman Media, "1915"
will be released day-and-date on April 17th. Watch below.
