The documentary is a part of a special festival screening program dedicated to the memory of the victims of the Armenian genocide in 1915-16.

Millions fill stadiums across the world for the sound of SERJ TANKIAN, the Grammy-winning lead singer of SYSTEM OF A DOWN. With exclusive interviews, adventures, and original footage personally filmed by Serj Tankian, this documentary biopic allows audiences backstage access to an international rock star whose faith in music not only revolutionized heavy metal, but also world events. Throughout his life, the musician has pursued social justice, harnessing the power of his songs and celebrity for real political change. His decades-long campaign for formal U.S. recognition of the Armenian Genocide was finally approved by Congress. See details: www.rusdocfilmfest.org
