“Singing in Exile” (2015, 76 min.) is a film by Nathalie Rossetti and Turi Finocchiaro about Aram and Virginia, an Armenian couple from the diaspora, who transmit an ancestral tradition of chant which is in danger of disappearing to a troupe of European actors. During the process of creating a new play, the couple takes the company on a trip to Anatolia where the Armenian civilization has been destroyed. Along the way, the questioning of the actors brings to the forefront the wealth of this culture: the chant becomes a language of creation and sharing, the breath of life.
