SUMMARY:West Newton Cinema presents There Was\, There Was Not
DESCRIPTION:In THERE WAS\, THERE WAS NOT\, myth and reality intertwine to reveal the lives of four\nArmenian women facing the loss of their homeland. What began as a quiet observation\nof their daily lives became\, after the war in Artsakh\, an urgent chronicle of survival — a\ncinematic act of memory and resistance. \nThe film has been hailed by critics as:\n“A bold act of narrative resistance”-The Moveable Fest\n“A fiery\, feminist wartime fable”- Hammer to Nail\n“A powerful tribute to a former country” – RogerEbert.com\nFilmmaker Atom Egoyan praised it as “a deeply felt and beautifully made film.”\nThe documentary has toured festivals worldwide following its world premiere at True/False\nFilm Festival\, winning multiple awards\, including the Audience Award and First Honorable Mention Jury Award at Argentina’s Mar del Plata International Film Festival and the FIPRESCI International Film Critics Award at the Golden Apricot Film Festival. \nQ&A:\nFollowing the screening\, filmmaker Emily Mkrtichian will join a Q&A discussion moderated by Paul Boghosian\, President of Harbor Side Films\, producer of documentaries (PBS)\, public affairs programming as well as major television and cable\nand streaming projects for networks and private clients.
