Arzu: Hi, I'm Arzu Geybullayeva |
| 00:04 → 00:07 |
and what you're seeing behind me |
| 00:07 → 00:09 |
is a church from the 11th Century |
| 00:09 → 00:12 |
It's actually in Georgia |
| 00:12 → 00:14 |
and funnily enough |
| 00:14 → 00:15 |
just about a few days ago |
| 00:15 → 00:18 |
I was in a village with Onnik Krikorian |
| 00:18 → 00:21 |
an Azeri village actually |
| 00:21 → 00:23 |
in the eastern part of Georgia |
| 00:23 → 00:24 |
and we were in a mosque |
| 00:24 → 00:28 |
so it's been quite a full few days |
| 00:28 → 00:30 |
seeing a mosque in Georgia |
| 00:30 → 00:32 |
and then seeing a really beautiful church |
| 00:32 → 00:33 |
in Georgia |
| 00:33 → 00:35 |
and now I pass it on to Onnik |
| 00:35 → 00:37 |
to ask a few questions |
| 00:37 → 00:38 |
Onnik: I guess I'm just interested |
| 00:38 → 00:41 |
in your general impressions of the village |
| 00:41 → 00:42 |
the wedding that we saw |
| 00:42 → 00:43 |
is it pretty common |
| 00:43 → 00:45 |
to what you'd find in an Azeri village in Azerbaijan? |
| 00:45 → 00:49 |
Arzu: First of all, what I thought about the wedding was |
| 00:49 → 00:51 |
really nice, it was a lot of fun |
| 00:51 → 00:54 |
I actually enjoyed myself a lot |
| 00:54 → 00:55 |
just speaking to local women |
| 00:55 → 00:58 |
and seeing how it's all being prepared |
| 00:58 → 01:00 |
It's very typical for an Azeri village |
| 01:00 → 01:02 |
for an Azeri village wedding |
| 01:02 → 01:06 |
I've been to maybe a few in Azerbaijan myself |
| 01:06 → 01:09 |
It's the same -- tents, tables, a lot of guests, |
| 01:09 → 01:11 |
a lot of food, nice Azeri music |
| 01:11 → 01:15 |
You know, it's a lot of fun |
| 01:15 → 01:16 |
Onnik: I saw you were trying to cause |
| 01:16 → 01:17 |
some trouble, though, at the wedding |
| 01:17 → 01:18 |
by speaking to the women |
| 01:18 → 01:20 |
and trying to find out their impressions |
| 01:20 → 01:23 |
of life as a woman in an Azeri village |
| 01:23 → 01:24 |
How did that go? |
| 01:24 → 01:25 |
Arzu: It actually went really well |
| 01:25 → 01:26 |
They were very impressed |
| 01:26 → 01:28 |
that I was from Azerbaijan |
| 01:28 → 01:30 |
I was young, I was independent, |
| 01:30 → 01:31 |
I was working |
| 01:31 → 01:34 |
and they were telling me that this girl |
| 01:34 → 01:36 |
she has a completely different mindset |
| 01:36 → 01:37 |
this is great |
| 01:37 → 01:39 |
we wish our women were like this |
| 01:39 → 01:42 |
but obviously they have their own complaints |
| 01:42 → 01:43 |
they said our girls marry young |
| 01:43 → 01:44 |
they don't go to school |
| 01:44 → 01:48 |
unless they go to Tbilisi with their husbands |
| 01:48 → 01:51 |
So, in fact, it wasn't really a lot of trouble... |
| 01:51 → 01:53 |
I was just opening their minds |
| 01:53 → 01:55 |
Onnik: And, in actual fact, the issues |
| 01:55 → 01:58 |
that do concern women in the South Caucasus |
| 01:58 → 02:00 |
[unintelligible] |
| 02:00 → 02:01 |
Arzu: I'm sorry? |
| 02:01 → 02:03 |
Onnik: They're fully aware of all those issues? |
| 02:03 → 02:05 |
things such as education, early marriage |
| 02:05 → 02:07 |
Arzu: Yes, yes, yes |
| 02:07 → 02:09 |
They're aware, but the problem is that |
| 02:09 → 02:11 |
it all comes down to education |
| 02:11 → 02:13 |
if they don't tell you at school |
| 02:13 → 02:16 |
that you can't get married at 17 or even 15 |
| 02:16 → 02:18 |
then what a girl can do? |
| 02:18 → 02:19 |
Onnik: Thanks very much |
| 02:19 → 02:21 |
Is there anything you'd like to add? |
| 02:21 → 02:23 |
It's been a good stay in Georgia? |
| 02:23 → 02:25 |
Arzu: It's been an excellent stay in Georgia |
| 02:25 → 02:26 |
This is my second time in Georgia |
| 02:26 → 02:28 |
The first time I was in Tbilisi |
| 02:28 → 02:29 |
This time I'm really far from Tbilisi |
| 02:29 → 02:32 |
Not too far, maybe two hours away, but |
| 02:32 → 02:35 |
it's been an excellent trip. I've really enjoyed it |
| 02:35 → 02:37 |
and I hope there will be more to come |
| 02:37 → 02:38 |
Onnik: Excellent. Thanks very much |
| 02:38 → 02:39 |
Arzu: Thank you |
