Orphans of the Genocide documentary shot

The Armenoid Team has shot Orphans of the Genocide, an 18-minute short documentary dedicated to over 150,000 Armenian orphans of the Genocide.

The inspiration to this story was a recent article by award winning journalist Robert Fisk of The Independent Magazine depicting Silicon Valley engineer Maurice Missak Kelechian's scientific research, which led to the unveiling of an Armenian orphanage in Antoura near Beirut-Lebanon, operated by Ahmad Jemal Pasha and served as a "turkification" center. This orphanage housed a thousand Armenian orphans.

Currently the producers of Orphans of the Genocide are working on a 60 minute version of the documentary featuring an exclusive interview by Robert Fisk, The Armenoid Team said in a press release.
