March 9 a decision was made at a meeting of Council of Europe Eurimages Fund to provide 600 thousand euros to famous Italian film directors, brothers Paolo and Vittorio Taviani for their Lark Farm film on the Armenian Genocide. All jury members, except Turkey, supported the decision. The Fund, which promotes European cinema production, includes 32 states. In his speech Fund President Jacques Toubon (France) resolutely defended the decision passed and accused Turkey in committing a Genocide, calling it historical reality. In spite of the denialist stance of the Turkish representative and official Ankara's efforts, the jury did not change their mind, reports the Press Service of the Armenian MFA.
