ArmInfo. A full-length film by Armenian director Aram Shahbazyan "Chnchik" is included in the competition.
The program of the Busan International Film Festival, which will be held on October 21-30, 2020. It should be noted that a non-standard film for the Armenian audience called "Chnchik" was released last year. The story tells of a girl with mental retardation who lives in a remote village, where she becomes the victim of ridicule, violence and shame for all the villagers. The film was shot for ten years due to a lack of funding, going through this whole difficult period, the film was finally able to reach the big screens thanks to the financial support of the National Cinema Center of Armenia.
Note that the Busan International Film Festival has been held annually since 1996, but, unfortunately, this year, due to the coronavirus pandemic, the festival may be canceled if the epidemiological situation continues.
