45 Days: The Fight for a Nation is a 2021 documentary film depicting the Nagorno-Karabakh war. The film is shot and narrated by Emile Ghessen and produced by Asko Akopyan.[1][2]
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).[1]
"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.[1]
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.[3]
