On the anniversary of the death of director and TV presenter Tigran Keosayan, a monument was erected to him. The monument is made in the form of a director’s chair: a jacket is thrown on its back, and the script for the film “Immortals” by Keosayan lies on the seat. The monument is located next to the graves of the father of the director Edmond Keosayan and his brother David.
This was told by Keosayan’s widow, RT editor-in-chief Margarita Simonyan. According to her, three monuments were erected in a year.
The first is the same monument in the cemetery, although the director’s body is not there: his ashes are stored at Simonyan’s house in a blue vase on a bedside table.
The second monument is the Tigran Keosayan Prize, which is awarded to people who unselfishly saved others at the risk of their own lives. The award has already received 30 people, and its monetary part is 1 million rubles.
The third monument Simonyan considers his new book “Never First Love: Confession of Grief and Joy”, published in early September.
RT’s chief editor spoke about Keosayan’s condition when there was no hope.
