Special Episode: Daughter of the Crying Man
An unexpected VHS in a Toronto basement leads to finding a branch of the family that has been lost for 60 years, and uncovering the last Armenian village still surviving in Turkey.
This documentary is adapted from an audio-only episode. After we finished it, we realized we had so much video footage and so many photos that we just had to turn it into a video.
