Since 2009, Subversive Film recorded conversations and interviews with filmmakers, archivists, freedom fighters and activists about their work and participation in the liberation struggle for Palestine during the 1968-82 period. The interviews, conducted in cafes, offices, homes and work studios, recount a history of the formation of a collective narrative and memory of colonised people through cinema and its political, ideological and logistical conditions that surrounded it. In a blunt gesture Resounding Archives assumes the format of documentation, (archival formation even), by (re)listening to conversations that remember and reflect on political film practices, a cinematic film production about and within the Palestiniain struggle, and the vast global solidarity network within which such practices operated. The selection of interviews presented here tries to draw an image, through stories and sounds, of a film practice within a revolution, voices are coming from Nils Vest, Monica Maurer, Khadija Habashneh, Serge Le Pron, Masao Adachi, Alain Bernstein, Ivan Strasburg, Issam Nassar, Akram Zaatari, Lokman Slim and Sten Walegren
