The Cut, the first film to cover the events of 1915 in the Ottoman Empire and the final film in Turkish-German director Fatih Akin’s (The Edge of Heaven-BWF 2006) trilogy on love, commemorates the 100th anniversary of the Armenian Genocide that resulted in the forced migration and diaspora of the Armenian minority. Tahar Fahim (A Prophet) stars as a husband and father who is initially deported by the Turkish authorities from his native village and forced into punishing labor in the desert. After surviving mass murder by luck and through an act of kindness, he loses his family, speech and faith, but when he learns that his twin daughters may still be alive, he embarks upon an incredible journey from Asia to the US. The film will be shown two days after the official observance of the 100th anniversary of the Armenian Genocide on April 24th.
