The Hidden Map to premiere on PBS in hundreds of US cities

The Public Broadcasting Service (PBS) is days away from premiering the Armenian story as told through Ani Hovannisian’s The Hidden Map. The documentary will air about 1,000 times primarily between June 5-13, 2022 across the nation in cities from Boston, Massachusetts to Juneau, Alaska.
The Hidden Map takes viewers deep into the ancestral Armenian homeland, where a chance meeting between an Armenian-American granddaughter of genocide survivors and a Scottish explorer leads to a joint odyssey




This was one of the best documentaries about the Armenian Genocide and enemy-occupied Western Armenia I had watched. What made it really great was the fact that this research was conducted along with a non-Armenian who was purely interested in the truth which he was able to unearth, discover, expose and tell using those hidden maps and with before and after photos of deliberate destruction, as well as the distribution, of the properties of murdered, deported and exiled indigenous Armenians. The direct admissions of the local population inhabiting seized Armenian properties were quite eye-opening and revealing and a bonus. Great job!

I am frustrated with PBS. I am an adult child of an Armenian Genocide survivor. I am a PBS member, have passport, and had a gathering of 8 cousins from across the USA all of whom were adult children of survivors AND WE COULD NOT FIND HOW TO VIEW THIS PRODUCTION EXCEPT ON MY DESKTOP. My colleague called to tell me about this and she saw it on tv. Where is this?????? When is it shown in Detroit????
This program was so fascinating and insightful. I was living in Holland in 2000 when I saw a young man in his twenties that looked exactly like my father when he was younger. When I spoke to him he revealed that he was Armenian. I am of Hungarian heritage,now a Canadian, with my father born in an area of the country where the people that still look Turkish to this day. He was 6 ft tall with olive skin, brown eyes, and looked just like Saddam Hussein when he was older. I know the Turks ruled over Hungary for 150 years so their genetic material continues. My mothers side had German and Turkish, the story goes that when the wars finally stopped back in 1700, a Turkish soldier stayed behind and married a beautiful blond haired blue eyed woman. So my ancestry could be Armenian perhaps? It is truly tragic of course as to what been done to the Armenians only 100 years ago with so much culture and history and amazing architecture being destroyed. Being a lover of history I read extensively. The never ending parade of destruction by the mightier against the weaker is shocking to read that has occurred throughout the last 3 millennia. You are doing a great service by keeping this story alive. Maybe in the future the Turkish leaders will acknowledge their true history as the Armenians are so part of that.
