Turn on the radio. Tune in to a station that shouldn’t exist. Sense the air thicken with thoughts and words from below. Witness the emergencies of war, rampant capitalism and inequality, colonial aftermaths, and environmental decline. Galvanized by distinct and unconventional media practices, filmmakers hone our ears to underground frequencies of dissent that amplify unquiet voices ringing in the fight for liberation and restorative justice.
