My Son Shall Be Armenian is a 2004 Canadian documentary by Hagop
Goudsouzian, who travels to Armenia and Syria with five other members
of Montreal’s Armenian community who lost relatives in the Armenian
Genocide, to speak with survivors.
In Syria, Goudsouzian films in Deir ez-Zor, where thousands of
Armenians were said to have been killed. In one scene, he scrapes
the soil around a church and discovers the remains of what appears to
be a mass grave, scooping up bones, a wedding ring and a bullet. In
Armenia, Goudsouzian visits villages that had been renamed for former
settlements, finding elders who recount what had occurred to their
parents and siblings.
The Armenian Genocide has been recognized and condemned by Uruguay
(1965), the Republic of Cyprus (1982), Argentina (1993), Russia
(1995), Canada (1996), Greece (1996), Lebanon (1997), Belgium (1998),
Italy (2000), Vatican (2000), France (2001), Switzerland (2003),
Slovakia (2004), The Netherlands (2004), Poland (2005), Germany
(2005), Venezuela (2005), Lithuania (2005), Chile (2007), Sweden
(2010). The Armenian Genocide has been recognized by Vatican, the
Council of Europe and the World Council of Churches.
The documentary is available here.
