Armenopolis – Gherla is a city built from scratch, on a land bought back in the early 17th century by an Armenian community who had left from Moldova. It is the first city in Romania that was built on an alreasy existant plan, a city that had his most important institutions erected ever since the 18th century and managed to preserve them to present times: the Solomon Church, the Karatsony House, the City Hall, the orphanages, the highschool and also the park. Armenopolis-Gherla is a city designed to defeat history, with houses more than 250 years old. The documentary is an invitation to admire a Baroque city, an authentic museum in open space, a place designed for the future, for families, with love and passion.
