Re-editing an enormous quantity of film, much of it taken under dangerous conditions during the activist struggles of the 1960s and early '70s, Marker - who always thinks about the condition of film as memory - presents a vivid picture of world unrest, denouncing 'governments, who would like us to have no memory'.
