Based on testimony and song from Protest in Harmony, a radical choir in
Edinburgh, Our Voices Resound tells an ongoing story of activism and
struggle through singing. It offers fresh insight into the long
relationship between music and politics, and intersperses personal and
intimate stories to the broader context and collective experience of
singing and activism.
This film reflects on the significance of singing radical songs, the
community aspects of belonging to an inclusive group, the politics of
enabling people’s voices, and the intervention of public spaces to
perform and create awareness about current issues. Like constant
dripping wears away stone, persistent collective singing can be a
powerful, peaceful and positive force for change in the world.
The screening will last for 50 minutes, and will be followed by a Q&A with the directors, Martin Farías and Eileen Karmy.
