In the words of a war veteran "this country became home for fat, corrupt people ready to sell themselves for millions of dollars ", a statement Arshak finds it hard to disagree with. The interview excerpt is subsequently edited out of a TV report and the resulting professional conflict sees him lose his job. Amongst these depressing surroundings his childhood memories seem to return with growing vividness: the early nineties, a time when war with Azerbaijan broke out and Armenia was hit by an energy crisis. Back in the present day Arshak again finds the electricity turned off, this time due to his inability to cover the bills. During his childhood years war and blackouts were an inescapable element of everyday life.
In her feature film debut, Anna Arevshatyan speaks of the search for identity, both individual and collective, to a backdrop of wonderful imagery. GOOD MORNING has to date received both the Award for Best Film at the Pomegranate FF in Toronto, as well as Best Armenian Film at the Golden Apricot Yerevan IFF. WMH
