Über diesen Film

From the award-winning director of Hotel Rwanda comes a powerful and sweeping epic set during the last days of the Ottoman Empire. Sparks fly when a humble Armenian medical student (Isaac) falls in love with an artist (Le Bon) already committed to a renowned and worldly journalist (Bale). But as tensions rise with the outbreak of World War I, the trio must set passions aside to survive as the world around them crumbles and one of history’s darkest yet rarely told chapters unfolds before their eyes. - ( Original Title - The Promise (2017) )

Bewertungen und Rezensionen

I watched it in theaters. It was heartbreaking considering the present still ongoing denials. Look what happened cannot be ignored, the truth cannot be twisted, altered, omitted, nor rewritten in a form that favors a group of people over another. What happened, happened; period. RIP to all the victims as those of us in the light side of humanity can only hope our darkest nature doesn't have to happen again.

A delicious treat for the eyes as well as the soul, The Promise unfolds as a epic film yet breaks your heart by the end, as the truth of the historical horrors are revealed. This is a story, like other attempts to eradicate a people, tribe, or religion, that needed to be told and have more light shed on the ways in which greed and power hunger can lead human beings to rise up against one another. We must learn from the past in order to avoid its pitfalls, and we must learn to love one another and treat all with respect and dignity. These types of genocides must stop happening. There is enough for all. My thanks to the producers who brought this story to life. My sons are of Armenian decent (among other places). My heart goes out to the Armenian people who's resillience is nothing short of remarkable.
