We’re honored to share Vrej’s story with the entire U.S. on PBS, for FREE starting April 4th, in recognition of April's Genocide Awareness Month.

“Intimate, emotional, and urgent," (-), My Sweet Land follows 11-year-old Vrej as his dreams are caught in the crossfire of war in his homeland, Artsakh. MY SWEET LAND is a reminder that children in conflict zones are not just numbers. They are humans with hopes, dreams, and dignity.
