Syrian-Armenian film director Avo Kaprielian’s documentary film “Homes Without Doors” will be presented at the Berlin International Film Festival, reports Aleppo’s Kantsasar Weekly, according to Hayern Aysor.

The film presents the life of an Armenian family that lives in the heart of the clashes taking place in the New Village District of Aleppo and takes shelter in Beirut in 2015.

New Village, which became a shelter for Armenians having escaped the Armenian Genocide 100 years ago, is receiving the local migrants during the days of the Syrian crisis. With his small camera, Avo Kaprielian documents the changes that New Village has undergone, the destruction, the difficulties that the people have faced and the heartbreaking images. In a unique style, the director draws parallels between the Armenian Genocide and the sufferings that the people of Syria have undergone.
