Screening of Turkish Youth Documentaries in Armenia

Four Turkish students traveled to Armenia from December 5th to the 7th, 2011 to participate in numerous screenings of their short documentary films, which they shot in Armenia earlier this year.

Six Armenian and six Turkish students made short documentaries about different aspects of the life and culture of their neighboring country in 2011 as part of the "Dialogue-Building between Turkey and Armenia" project.
