Listen To The Voices
Synopsis
With a haunting score by Floating Points and Pharoah Sanders, Listen to the Voices captures the aftermath of a grave crime. In 2012, the director's cousin was murdered in Cayenne, the capital of French Guiana. Created in collaboration with family members, this deeply moving film reckons with the fallout. At its heart is Melrick, a 13-year-old who navigates coming of age in a community marked by violence. Conversations about revenge and forgiveness unfold, while slow-motion scenes of dance and street carnival imbue the film with dreamlike intensity.
Limited seats are available for patrons requiring access for wheelchairs, low vision and hearing loop. Please contact our ticketing team directly on 1300 733 733 or tickets@sff.org.au to complete your booking.
