The Lost Voice: Aurora Mardiganian

The podcast series “The Lost Voice: Aurora Mardiganian” is an investigation into what happened to the Armenian genocide survivor who became a film star, Aurora Mardiganian. The podcast recounts her story, Hollywood exploitation, her resilience, and reflects on how the movie, which broke box office records in America, is now officially a “lost film.” It also delves into the UK's position on the Armenian Genocide, by speaking with Tim Loughton, MP, who has been fighting for recognition in the country.
In February we hosted a talk at our Institute with the podcast creator, Max Saakhyan, about the process of making the podcast and the importance of archiving.
