Beacons is a cinematographic journey portraying eight women who distil the archive of cultural workers from countries of the Non-Aligned Movement into a musical score. They translate and decipher words into sounds and choreography and meet within a proposition for an address recasting the unrealised promises of the past into a sonic address a rehearsal for our present. Filmed on isolated architectures steeped in nature that once served the awakening of transnational solidarity, the project aims to re-inscribe the missing female voice into the history of world-building.
