In this evocative docu-essay, filmmaker Tamara Stepanyan embarks on a journey through the history of Armenian cinema.

Sparked by a dialogue with her father, renowned Armenian actor Vigen Stepanyan, My Armenian Phantoms interweaves this vibrant history with personal loss and reflection.

Featuring a rich tapestry of archival footage, this captivating documentary reveals the enduring soul of Armenian storytelling – its beauty, its struggles, and its spirit. Through the lens of cinema, Stepanyan – who left Armenia after the collapse of the Soviet Union – explores what “being Armenian” actually means today.
