Bayview Entertainment Readies The Blu-ray Debut Of Documentary Filmmaker Bared Maronian's Bloodless: The Path to Democracy For Release On Mar. 28

Beginning on April the 24^th in 1915, the Ottoman Empire launch the systematic genocide of the Armenian people.   They survived.  

The Soviet Union gobbled up what remained in 1922 by settling with Turkey and selling-out the Armenian people with the surrender of Mount Ararat.

For the next 70 years Armenia was ruled by the communists until the collapse of the Soviet Union.  Free at last?  

Not quite, one central ruling authority simply replaced the former for the next 25 years … until the Armenian Velvet Revolution of 2018.

Bayview Entertainment announced this past week that documentary filmmaker Bared Maronian’s award-winning look at the events of 2018, Bloodless: The Path to Democracy, will be available on Blu-ray on Mar. 28.

It began with a single footstep.  Journalist and former political prisoner, Nikol Pashinyan, began walking across the country and within six weeks had raised the awareness of the population to the corruption of president Serzh Sargsyan, who was in the process of changing election procedures to ensure permanent leadership; a permanent oligarchy.  

Without firing a shot, Pashinyan, and more importantly, the Armenian people, were able to topple the Sargsyan government through peaceful resistance.   Bloodless: The Path to Democracy is that story.
