Turkey is making a film on the occasion of the 100th anniversary of the Armenian Genocide by CNN Türk. Hollywood star Kate Winslet should take part in the filming of “escape from my heart” that should raise events that have affected … Armenians but also Turks and Kurds. The site CNN Türk wrote on the eve of the 100th anniversary of the “events of 1915,” Turkish Prime Minister Erdogan for the first time his condolences to the grandchildren of the victims of the Armenian genocide. The film will have a love story against the backdrop of WWI. One of the heroines of the film is an Armenian INFERMIERE, played by Kate Winslet. It will probably be accompanied by actor Mark Wahlberg. The aim of the film is to show that Anatolia (we forget the term Armenia or Armenian Plateau), Armenians, Turks and Kurds “lived in peace and friendship, before the war put an end to this peace,” writes website, forgetting the many massacres of Armenians were victims in the Ottoman Empire for centuries … The film also demonstrate “general evil” of the First World War on the entire population of the region, as Armenians Turks and Kurds. The script runs in Van. And shots will be realized in Van, Akhtamar Island, near Ararat and Erzurum.
The Armenian Genocide, trivialized as “an unfortunate fact of war.” Although disappointing. But that exudes denialist propaganda Ankara.
