I saw this movie in summer 1995 and I have to tell you it comes too close to home for me. My parents escaped the Beirut war and are Armenians as well and unlike the characters in the movie, we were more fortunate in the American dream. But for the majority of those that do immigrate, they go through the exact same struggles that the characters in "Chickpeas" go through. If you ever come across it, I definitely recommend viewing it.
