Digital version of `We Are Our Mountains` film screened at Council of  Europe Cinema

ArmInfo.  As part of the traditional two-month Francophonie festival, a digital version of the film "We Are Our Mountains" by renowned Armenian film director Henrik Malyan was screened with French subtitles at the Council of Europe Cinema on March 25, at the initiative of the Permanent Mission of  Armenia to the Council of Europe.

According to the Armenian Embassy to the Council of Europe, in his  opening remarks, Armenia's Permanent Representative Armen Papikyan  emphasized that the screening of "We Are Our Mountains," a  masterpiece of Armenian cinema created over half a century ago, at  the headquarters of the Council of Europe, a bastion of human rights  and democracy, is motivated by the universal themes raised in the  film. "Hrant Matevosyan's short story, spiced with subtle humor, has  been transformed into a philosophical reflection and a message of  profound humanism thanks to Henrik Malyan's film adaptation. The film  reminds us of the importance of bridging issues and perspectives  through dialogue and mutual understanding, as well as the priority of  constructive dialogue in the spirit of shared values and  coexistence-values that both the Council of Europe and La  Francophonie support and promote," the Armenian Permanent Mission  said in a statement.

Ambassadors, diplomats, and officials from Council of Europe member  states attended the screening. The film was organized in cooperation  with the Armenian Cinematography Foundation.
