03/19/2025
Newmag and Violet Grigoryan are launching a new podcast series! Tune in to ULTRAVIOLET, where new episodes will be released every two weeks.
The first episode explores Hrant Matevosyan's novel "Autumn Sun" and its film adaptation, focusing on the character of Aghun and interpretations of the role by various artists. In 1977, Bagrat Hovhannisyan directed the film "Autumn Sun", based on Matevosyan’s novel of the same name. Interestingly, both the book and the film were created almost simultaneously, offering a unique perspective on Aghun’s character.
