Atom Egoyan
Atom Egoyan's profound reflection on historical memory is an anguished, multi-layered film that contemplates the Turkish massacre and forced deportation of more than a million of its Armenian citizens in 1915, an event still officially denied by Turkey. In examining the lives of a group of contemporary Canadian-Armenians who are making a movie about the catastrophe, it ponders the relation between historical and personal memory and art, and focuses on a canvas by the Armenian painter Arshile Gorky, who survived the massacre. — Stephen Holden , The New York Times
