Ararat is a contemporary story of two estranged families and their search for reconciliation and truth. It is also a historical re-enactment (a film within a film) being made by a famous Armenian director, Edward Saroyan whose production is based on Clarence Ussher's actual book 'An American Physician In Turkey' which depicts the Siege of Van, and the tragic events of 1915.
Seamlessly shifting through time, director Atom Egoyan explores the quest for personal, sexual and cultural identity through the intimate moments shared by lovers, families, enemies and strangers. The film features a star-studded ensemble cast including Charles Aznavour, Christopher Plummer, Eric Bogosian and Brent Carver.
