BAFTA (the British Academy of Film and Television Arts) threw its annual awards season tea party in Los Angeles on January 13, inviting actors from some of the year's biggest series and films. American-Armenian director and actor Michael Goorjian, whose "American" became the first Armenian film on the "Oscar" shortlist, was also among the guests.
The director, who is also the main actor of the film, was pictured with the Scream star Neve Campbell, whom he thanked for supporting the Armenian production film.

"Thank you Neve Campbell for supporting "Amerikatsi" at the BAFTA tea party with me today. I still feel like an imposter at these events but you helped me feel more like I belong," he wrote on his Instagram.
The film "Amerikatsi" produced by Arman Nshanyan and directed by Michael Goorjian, has made it to the finals of the Oscars, competing in the Best International Feature Film category. This marks a historic moment for Armenian film production as it's the first time an Armenian film has been shortlisted for an Oscar.
Arman Nshanyan, the producer, has expressed his confidence in the film's universal story and success. In a conversation with NEWS.am STYLE, he shared, 'I felt that this film, with its universal story, could achieve such success. I was concerned about whether the film would catch the attention of the Oscars, but I never doubted the quality of the work done.'
