"Women of 1915" with Hooshere and Film Director Bared Maronian
WOMEN OF 1915 combines facts and emotion to honor the brave women of the Armenian Genocide, many of whom lost their lives, survived to create new lives, or were forced into lives that were not their own.
Many women, Armenian, European, and American, also traveled great distances to rescue lives, even at the risk of their own.
Among the women highlighted in the film are survivors, volunteers, and resisters, including survivor Aurora Mardiganian, American volunteer Mary Louise Graffam, diplomat Diana Apkar, and Danish missionary Maria Jacobsen.
Prior to the screening, Hooshere will perform songs from the film's soundtrack.
The screening will be followed by a Q&A with four-time Emmy winning filmmaker Bared Maronian, and a light reception.
