Film about Orbeli brothers presented in Moscow

Moscow hosted recently the presentation of a documentary telling about the Orbeli brothers.

The film, directed by Ashot Jazoyan, features the fate of the three prominent representatives of the noble Armenian family.

In an article devoted to the three brothers, the Russian newspaper Novye Izvestia says each of them had his contribution to the Russian culture, as well as the development of the Russian-Armenian ties.

The premier screening of the film is dedicated to the 125th birthday anniversary of the youngest brother, Hovsep. Being the director of the Russian Hermitage Museum under Stalin’s rule and in the World War II era, the youngest Orbeli turned out bold enough to rescue internationally acclaimed masterpieces.
