45 Days: The Fight for a Nation
45 Days: The Fight for a Nation is a documentary film depicting the Nagorno-Karabakh war released in 2021. The film is shot and narrated by Emile Ghessen and produced by Asko Akopyan. Synopsis 
The film was made during the second Nagorno-Karabakh war in fall 2020, when Azerbaijan launched a large-scale military offensive against Artsakh (Nagorno-Karabakh). "Recognising the significant amount of disinformation emerging from the war and lack of world news coverage, Emile travelled the region and embedded himself with local people – those who took up arms to fight. This is their story," the film's description says. The movie shows how the news media used misinformation or avoided coverage of these events and thereby affected the public's awareness and perception of this invasion and war. Background and production
