Listening to the Quiet: Lilit Movsisyan’s Art of Memory
Description
Born in Gyumri and trained in Yerevan, Lilit Movsisyan uses storytelling as a way to document and preserve what others often overlook. Her first book, A Mother’s Conversation, shares the intimate story of Edgar Aghababyan, a fallen hero of the 2020 Artsakh War, with all proceeds donated to his family.
Lilit then turned to documentary filmmaking, debuting with “And Hovhannes Came,” a tribute to Armenia’s National Hero, Maestro Hovhannes Chekijyan. The film was screened internationally and earned the “Etalon of the Year” award at the Prestige International Media Awards in Dubai.
Her latest film, “The Professor Lee,” bridges Armenia and Korea, inspired by a personal spark that led her to the extraordinary story of Professor Kiejin Lee. Across her projects—from Europe to Asia—Lilit remains committed to telling quiet, meaningful stories rooted in memory, heritage, and human truth.
