Armenian Genocide Survivors Fleeing Turkey (1919)
Вставка
- Опубліковано 3 жов 2024
- Rare footage of Armenians escaping Turkey soon after the end of the Armenian Genocide. The original film is held by the Library of Congress in Washington D.C., but a laboratory in Bologna digitally restored it in 2015 from a nitrate-positive print. Due to the production date, this footage is in the public domain and uploaded here to increase accessibility.
Original Title: Armenia The Cradle of Humanity, Under the Shadow of Mount Ararat
Year: 1919-1923
Fondazione Cineteca di Bologna at the L'Immagine Ritrovata
Very sad but also very important footage. Thank you for posting
Of course!! I couldn’t let it stay hidden away
Thank you for sharing this.
Of course!! I came across it while looking for historical footage for my documentary, and I couldn’t believe it wasn’t more widely shared. The full high quality version is still stuck behind a pay wall unfortunately, even though it’s legally public domain.

My favorite part is thinking about how much worse Turkey is without us.
Do you know the locations? The cities being shown apart from Istanbul
Unfortunately no - all the information I have available is in the text description of the video.
Why did this genocide happen?
Just asking but didn't the armenians kill 5.5 muslims before that?
A historical event like that would probably be more widely known…can you please provide a source?
@@dougkalagian my source is a bunch of salty armenian kids on tiktok saying 5.5 million. So i wanted to know if its true or not.
@@pogto as far as I'm aware, its not true. I've researched the issue for years and haven't come across an event like that around the time of the Armenian Genocide. 🤷♂
