Documentarian of Genocide survivors and their memories: Verjine Svazlian

For over 60 years Verjine Svazlian, the daughter of survivors of the disaster in Zmyurnia, has been fulfilling her great mission.

She has brought out of her tears thousands of stories, testimonies, proverbs, tales and songs about the captured homeland.

The result of these years of work is 16 books which have been translated into many languages including Turkish. She has collected and published all the testimonies, even Derzor songs.
In order to publish the books she sold her fortune, and to collect the material she even endangered her life.
