Hot off the TIFF screening room, Oscar Isaac and Christian Bale get caught up in one of the most tragic events of WWI. The former a medical student and the later a photo journalist, the pair meet up in Constantinople and both fall for the same girl. The film follows the timeline of the Ottoman Empire's genocide of its Armenian subjects, resulting in the systematic extermination of 1.5 million people. Terry George, the same director that shed light on the Rwandan Genocide, will head the project when it comes to theaters.
