Samuel Khachikian was the most successful director of crime films in Iran during the genre’s heyday in the late 1950s and early 60s. Debates among critics about his films highlight how the crime film was able to thrive as a prestige form in the years before boundaries had solidified between commercial films and intellectual films made in Iran. Film noir, from its earliest transatlantic imaginings to its recent global circuits, has consistently engaged with an imagined elsewhere through its modernist style. In many parts of the world, it allowed a kind of performance of exuberant cinephilia while also attracting attention about its originality. In Tehran, as elsewhere, the genre accompanies the global circulation of modern design with strong, but mixed, feelings.

The many forms of home permeate William Saroyan’s most notable dramatic efforts: Hello Out There, The Time of Your Life, The Beautiful People, and The Cave Dwellers. Home embodies not only a place, but also an idea – one that provides hope for the hopeless and adrift.

In the late seventeenth century along the lines of European confession-building and Ottoman sunnitization, the Armenian Apostolic Church initiated the reshaping of its orthodoxy in the face of growing Tridentine Catholicism. Through the contextualization of the polemical writing attributed to the famed Constantinopolitan Armenian erudite Eremia Čʻēlēpi Kʻēōmiwrčean, this article discusses the ways of detecting “bad innovations” in the doctrine and practice of Armenian communities in the Ottoman realms, and the doctrinal instruments used for enforcing “pure faith” towards social disciplining of the Apostolic Armenians.

Sune Sevada, L. Hovakimyan, S. Khachatryan
“Warher” is a short story from the 2019 book Addiction written by Sune Sevada – a young Armenian writer and journalist, whose work has received much widespread recognition and acclaim. “Warher” is a story of love and struggle, an emotional outburst depicting the lives of those who remain behind, as the men go to war. Sevada’s short story is particularly significant in that it provides a testimony of the just recent war waged on the people and lands of Artsakh (Nagorno-Karabagh) by the Turkish and Azeri governments, where a small group of people had to defend their indigenous lands, families, and their homes against millions. Through detailed descriptions and hidden symbols, the story gives the readers a deep understanding of these events, and more specifically, the emotional struggles of the women and children, who live in constant fear and terror, anxiously await the fate of their loved ones fighting in war.
