Andin. Armenian Journey Chronicles. Documentary
October 2, 2017 @ 12:30 pm - 2:30 pm +04
“Andin. Armenian Journey Chronicles; Through the Oceans to the Unknown Shores – China, India, Central Asia” by Ruben Giney (Beijing). Andin is an epic documentary that centers on historical links between Armenians travelling to India, China and other countries on the Silk Road.
Because of a very small number of researchers proficient in the Armenian language, most of relevant study materials produced during the Soviet period have never been published in Europe. This is the exact reason why the film's creators set a goal of revealing all known facts that affected World History. In pursuit of unique archival materials, manuscripts, personal journals and diaries from the libraries of Paris, London, Mexico and Lisbon were filmed.
The film was directed by Ruben Giney who had prior experience participating in several archaeological expeditions to the Tarim Basin. During three years of filming, Andin’s crew has visited 72 cities in 11 countries on 4 continents.
The documentary is designed for both ordinary viewers and experts specializing in the history of the Silk Road and the Spice trade.
