«GEGENkino attunes itself to autumn. With a focus on voices. Speaking, silence, to silence. Whether in cinematic memory culture, cinema as a document of an era, overwritten fragment, multi-media activism or fantastic political parable: grasping voices not only means dealing with physically sensual dimensions of sound phenomena, but also addressing social power structures, manufactured differences just like potentials of a diversity of voices. It means taking a voice seriously as an instrument of repression, but also as a force of awakening, dissent, as a challenge and a mediator of inner movements.»
