I have decided to change my topic from the Nigerian migrants in Turkey to the belonging issue of survivors of Armenian massacre, in some cases called as genocide in diaspora which entails difference corners of the world, USA, western Europe etc. In my study, I am going to take the movie “Ararat”, which is about the question where is homeland of diaspora Armenians, as the cultural object and around this movie I will analyze to what extent the diaspora Armenians feel where they live is their home.
