"Bars Media" documentary film studio's work
About us
Bars Media Documentary Film Studio was established in 1993 by Vardan Hovhannisyan, who began his career as a frontline-filmmaker covering hotspots in the former Soviet Union. Bars Media was one of the first independent film companies in Armenia, which specializes in making documentaries about human stories, culture, history and other social issues.
Studio’s documentaries have been broadcast on BBC-Storyville(UK), ARTE(France-Germany), WDR(Germany), PBS(US), NHK(Japan), YLE(Finland) and on many other international channels. Located in Armenia, the studio is uniquely positioned at the crossroads of Europe and Asia and is thus able to cover a wide range of stories from the region.
