Armenia’s “YEL” wins Best Dance Film Award at New York festival
Armenian short dance film “YEL” supported by Erebuni Historical and Archaeological Museum-Reserve, won the Best Dance Film Award at the prestigious Hollywood International Golden Age Film Festival in New York, as well as the Honorable Mention Award at the London International Shorts Film Festival, Erebuni said on Facebook on Tuesday.
According to project manager Lilit Gabrielyan, the project was launched with the aim of presenting Armenian art to the world with joint efforts and once again expressing “all the strength and endurance of our soul” through culture.
The dance film directed by Rima Pipoyan is about the struggle of polarities inside a human being and the reaction she or he may have when faced with all the contrasts of the outer world. And only self-overcoming can give a human being the feeling of victory.
The Goethe Center in Yerevan and Armenian State Chamber Choir (ASCC) are also among the film partners.
