The Screen Guide

The filmmaker, Shahane Bekarian, searches for cultural identity as he struggles with the notion of assimilation in multicultural Australia. As a second generation Australian-Armenian, he feels the weight behind the term white genocide, coined by the few survivors of the Armenian Genocide of 1915 to describe the bloodless loss of culture. This construct of the white genocide is burdened with the sacrifice, cultural pride, and faith with which their people endured.
