Ravished Armenia (1919)

"Ravished Armenia" (sometimes called "Auction of Souls") is based on the amazing narrative account of young Aurora Mardiganian that was produced for the American Committee for Armenian and Syrian Relief in 1919, through which runs the thrilling story of the Armenian girl who survived the great massacre. This newly restored 24 minute segment of Ravished Armenia was produced by the Armenian Genocide Resource Center of Northern California for the April 28, 2009 screening at the San Francisco Public Library. It includes a music score, and introduction, 125 subtitles and a slide show of several black and white production stills.
