The film documents a March 2023 conference held at UCLA that examined the future of restitution and justice following the United States’ recognition of the Armenian Genocide in 2021. Through discussions among leading scholars, legal experts, and policymakers, the documentary explores the feasibility of launching an Armenian Genocide reparations movement in the post-recognition era, the legal avenues available within the American legal system, and whether the Holocaust restitution movement may serve as a model for Armenian Genocide restitution.
Featured participants in the documentary include Ambassador Stuart Eizenstat, AGRP Director Dr. Taner Akçam, art historian Dr. Heghnar Watenpaugh, Law Professor Michael Bazyler, journalist Andrew Curry, and Law Professor Mayo Moran, along with attorneys specializing in international human rights law, including Armen Hovannisian, Kathryn Lee Boyd, and Karnig Kerkonian.
