Popular Turkish actress Demet Akbag sings an Armenian folk song in
a movie directed by Joseph Pirhasan to be aired in Turkey in early
January.
In “Last Stop is Salvation” or “Liberation is Final Destination”
(translated from Turkish), featuring a story of women fighting against
violence, the 52-year-old actress stars as Vardanush and sings “Aman,
Aghavni” (Oh, Dove), a song favored by Istanbul-Armenians, Turkish
Habermonitor reports. The actress took private lessons to be able to
sing it in Armenian (albeit with a heavy accent).
The movie clip is available on Habermonitor at
