Candles for Silence: The Armenian Stories explores the Armenian Genocide through four different stories, including conversations with a senior researcher at the Armenian Genocide Museum-Institute and people encountered on the streets of Yerevan. Through connecting the history of the Armenian people with the voices and experiences that continue to preserve its memory, the film traces these stories of loss, survival, and remembrance. The film ultimately asks how the legacy of the genocide endures across generations, and why remembering those who were silenced remains essential today.
