ARARAT

From Oscar-nominated director Atom Egoyan (THE SWEET HEREAFTER, EXOTICA), the extremely personal ARARAT brings together the tragedy of the Armenian Genocide, a country in denial and a people yearning for truth. In this sharp meta-narrative, a young man is interrogated by a customs officer and recounts how his life was permanently changed during the making of a film about the Genocide. This thought-provoking film compels us to experience the toxicity of genocide and the ways it continues to cast shadows on the lives of Armenians years after its bloody unfolding.
