Baku. Kamala Guliyevaâ€“APA. Turkish producer and script writer, Director of the Troy Film Producing Center Korhan Yurstever will make 120-minute film about the Khojali tragedy. Yurstever told APA exclusively that he produced a film dedicated to the Armenian issue in Turkey recently and while working on the scenario of that film he researched the genocide acts committed by Armenians in Azerbaijan. â€œKhojali Genocide shocked me completely. It is inhumanity to lance the motherâ€™s womb and removed baby. I will describe Khojali tragedy in details in the film. It is necessary for the memory of the victims of genocide. Armenians will lose sleep over the film I will make about Khojali tragedy. It is shameful that we didnâ€™t make or didnâ€™t support producing such film so farâ€.

Yurtsever said he collected many materials about Khojali tragedy rather than researcher. He is working on the filmâ€™s script for two months already and will complete it within two months. A part of actors will be invited from Turkey. Yurtsever said main roles would be played by the Azerbaijani actors. The most part of the film will be shot in Azerbaijan and some scenes will be made in Turkey.

He said no government organizations showed the interest so far. â€œMy company is a producer of the film. We need in moral support of Azerbaijani government. We have no financial problems. I know there are people who want to support us. One of the oil businessmen told me yesterday that he is ready to fund production of the filmâ€.
