" Ayvazian's obvious personal explorationis evocative, and her picture of an American Life colored nostalgically by an increasingly alien ethnic tradition, is persuasively embedded into a script of a certain supple grace " ~ NY Post
" Ni Armanians is a warm, likable work that benefits from Ayvazian's clear-headed insight into the dynamics of a close-knit family " ~ Variety
