Borrowed Voice: Turkish actress sings Armenian in upcoming movie
ArmeniaNow -- Popular Turkish actress Demet Akbag sings an Armenian folk song in a movie directed by Joseph Pirhasan to be aired in Turkey in early January.
In “Last Stop is Salvation” or “Liberation is Final Destination” (translated from Turkish), featuring a story of women fighting against violence, the 52-year-old actress stars as Vardanush and sings “Aman, Aghavni” (Oh, Dove), a song favored by Istanbul-Armenians, Turkish Habermonitor reports. The actress took private lessons to be able to sing it in Armenian (albeit with a heavy accent).
The movie clip is available on Habermonitor at http://www.habermonitor.com/en/haber/detay/89020/miracles-will-be-released-in-january-akbag-th
