TIMISOARA, MARCH 16, ARMENPRESS. Artak Igityan’s and Vahan
Stepanyan’s “Sunrise over Lake Van” movie was displayed in Timisoara,
Romania in the frames of Cinecultura annual international film
festival held on March 11-15. The audience highly appreciated the
movie. The Armenian movie was introduced in the film festival on
Armenian student Armen Stepanyan’s initiative. “Armenpress” had a
short interview with him.

– What can you say about the festival and what participation do you
have in the organization of the festival?

– First of all I would like to say that Cinecultura is an annual
international movie watching week during which national and
international prizewinning movies are introduced to the population of
Timisoara. This year nine movies from nine different countries were
introduced to the public. “Sunrise over Lake Van” was among them. I
am a volunteer member of the organizing committee of the festival and
I’m glad to introduce the Armenian cinematography and culture to the
Romanians.

– Was this the first time that an Armenian movie is shown within the
frames of this film festival on your initiative?

– No, it’s not. This is the second year that I introduce an Armenian
movie within the frames of Cinecultura.

Emil Lazarian: “I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.” - WS
