The Golden Chain of Mercy: Sydney screening and insightful discussion

·

The Golden Chain of Mercy is a pioneering film about the Australian efforts to rescue the survivors of the Genocides of the indigenous peoples of the Ottoman Empire, the Armenians, the Assyrians and the Hellenes.

For the first time, there is a cinematographic tribute to the unsung heroes who stretched ‘the Golden Chain of Mercy’ around the world: from Australia and New Zealand to Anatolia, Armenia, Assyria and Hellas.

On Sunday, August 25 at Event Cinemas Top Ryde City from 3pm, there will be a special screening of The Golden Chain of Mercy, the film which unveils poignant stories of survival and compassion that transcend borders. 

Amidst this darkness, a glimmer of hope emerges through the sacrifice of ANZAC unit fighters, alongside the benevolent citizens of Australia and New Zealand who came to their aid.

The Golden Chain of Mercy is a testament to humanity’s unwavering resolve to uphold justice and kindness in the face of unimaginable adversity.

Following the screening, patrons will be treated to a special Q&A with producer Manvel Saribekyan and genocide scholar Dr Panayiotis Diamadis (of the Aust. Institute for Holocaust and Genocide Studies).
