Outstanding Armenian film

The Armenian film Yeva (2017) was co-written and directed by Anahid Abad. The movie stars Narine Grigoryan in the title role.

This movie will be more meaningful to Armenians, because they will know about the regional wars and why so many landmines still exist in the region. (Landmines play an important role in the film.)

The actor Narine Grigoryan is superb in her role as a woman on the run from Armenia to Azerbaijan. (Well, to an area called Nagorno Karabakh, which is semi-autonomous.) She's a brilliant actor who could definitely be a physician, as called for in the role.

I found the movie to be very strong, and rated it 10. (The film has an apparent rating of 6.7, but I think that's a clerical mistake, because more than half of the raters rated it 10.) In any event Yeva is worth seeking out and watching.
