“La masseria delle allodole”, a film by Paolo and Vittorio Taviani, will for the first time be demonstrated in Estonia. The story, drawn from the best-selling novel by Antonia Arslan, tells about the Armenian Genocide in the Ottoman Empire.

“Murders of innocent people were part of performances at Greek theaters. We knew about the Armenian tragedy nearly by chance, after we read Antonia Arslan’s novel. We wanted to tell others about it as we can, by shooting as film,” said Vittorio Taviani.

The Berlin premiere of the film in Berlin in 2007 caused a scandal.

All those wishing can attend the noncommercial demonstration.
