Final Trailers for Animated Doc Film 'Aurora's Sunrise' About Armenia

"Her story shouldn't be forgotten." Two official trailers are available for this indie documentary film titled Aurora's Sunrise, which will be out in select US theaters in August. Starting on Aug. 11 in NY, Aug. 18 in LA, 9/1 in Toronto, with other cities across the US / Canada later on. A film about the incredible true story of how a fourteen-year-old girl narrowly escaped the slaughter of the Armenian Genocide and embarked upon an odyssey that took her to the heights of Hollywood stardom. The film examines how this survivor became a silent movie star: Aurora Mardiganian's odyssey is almost unreal. After losing her family, escaping slavery, and enduring Hollywood greed – she journeys far to tell the world of the Armenian Genocide. But even then her story does come to an end with much joy. Aurora's Sunrise is an acclaimed animated doc, similar to the award-winning doc Flee, and was submitted to the 95th Academy Awards as Armenia's official pick. It didn't end up getting nominated, though it has received plenty of other accolades. It's a harrowing, fascinating, eye-opening film shining new light on the Armenian genocide & how terrible it was.
