Screening of "The Hidden Map"

ANI HOVANNISIAN
Filmmaker and Broadcast Journalist

The Hidden Map brings to life the remarkable journey of an Armenian-American granddaughter of Armenian Genocide survivors and a Scottish explorer as they trek through the forbidden Armenian homeland in today’s eastern Turkey, uncovering buried truths, sacred relics, and silenced voices.

This screening of The Hidden Map is the first since the completion of the film’s two-year run on PBS. The Hidden Map has aired more than 2,000 times since its debut in 2022, has earned more than a dozen international awards and honors at festivals and special screenings, and was considered for three Primetime Emmys.

A broadcast journalist, as well as a filmmaker, Ani Hovannisian Kevorkian has traveled the world, from operating rooms in Siberia to green rooms at the Grammys, producing non-fiction stories for network television and other media. She is a member of the Directors Guild of America, Television Academy, and International Documentary Association.

 

Admission is free.
