The Armenian Film Festival is organized by the Armenian Film Society, a California-based organization that brings together Armenian filmmakers from around the world. The festival provides an opportunity to showcase their work to American audiences. The event runs from September 3rd to 7th.

After a successful screening at the 65th Krakow Film Festival and the Golden Apricot International Film Festival (where Gor won the Grand Prix), time has come for the film to be screened in the United States.

The fiction film MOTHERLAND will be presented in the Shorts – Made in Armenia section.
