A new movie telling the true story of an Armenian family who was forced to flee their home country of Azerbaijan amid political turmoil will be in theaters Jan. 26-28.

The Petrosyans – made up by husband and wife Ivan and Violetta and their two daughters Olga and Julia – inspired the new film “Between Borders,” which depicts the real-life events the family endured while fleeing from their home in Baku, Azerbaijan during the anti-Armenian massacre that took place in the late 1980s. Experiencing discrimination in their home country and then in Russia, the country to which they fled, the Petrosyans find hope in a church established by American missionaries. There they come to the faith and are helped to seek refuge in the United States.

CNA spoke to Violetta and Olga Petrosyan about their experience fleeing persecution and how they came to find refuge in Christ along the way.
