This is a contemporary film about the continuing efforts of Turkish Parliamentarians to deny the Armenian Genocide of 1915. The film starts with a petition to the British Parliament calling the Armenian Genocide a British wartime fabrication and subsequently moves to Istanbul, Ankara and locations where thousands of Armenians were murdered in 1915.
