ALBERT MKRTCHYAN: “PSYCHOLOGICAL WAR IS THE WORST”
“I am classified with those directors who don’t like to speak about their films until revising themselves. That’s why I have presented my new film “the sunrise of sad street” to my Russian colleagues,” said Albert Mkrtchyan. Mr. Mkrtchyan said that movie critic Russian Armen Medvedev told him that was one of his best films.
The presentation of the current film took place in Gyumri, on 30 October, and then it was accessible in “Moscow” cinema. Public TV will show the film in the coming week. The film tells about Karabakh war, Armenian blockade and a family. Though the film is about war, only one shooting is heard through the film. “War scenes I’ve tried to describe through psychological war, which I guess the most frustrating type of war,” said Mkrtchyan.
The heroes of the film are Anahit Kocharyan, Guyzh Manukyan, young actors Vardan Mkrtchyan and Armen Sargsyan. According to the director of the film, most of his heroes are not actors at all. “If I see what I need in them, I put on other spices on them myself,” said the director.
