The film entitled “Grandma’s Tattoos,” which is about the Armenian Genocide and which the state-run television of Sweden aired, has raised a huge protest by the Turkish community in Sweden

The Swedish Turks expressed their protest over this film by sending thousands of Emails to the state-run television, Haberler news agency of Turkey informs.    

It is noted that the television responded to these protests by the Turkish community by saying that the film is not about the Genocide, but rather on the recollections of the grandmother of Swedish Armenian Suzanne Khardalian, the director of the film. 

“Grandma’s Tattoos” was premiered in Sweden in September 2011, and it was aired three times on the country’s state-run television.

The film was also shown by the television stations of several other countries, including Al Jazeera.
