The Voices of Resistance an online discussion with Anand Patwardhan, August 23 to 27, 2004.

On June 16, 2004, one of India's most distinguished documentary filmmakers, Anand Patwardhan (War and Peace) gave a riveting keynote address at the Silverdocs International Documentary Conference in Washington, DC. In it, he took on some of the more critical issues facing documentary filmmakers today: media conglomeration, censorship (and self-censorship) and the increasing marginalization of ”the voices of resistance.”

From August 23 to 27, join Anand and other documentary colleagues from around the world for an intensive discussion of these issues, and for an international perspective on the challenges of political documentary filmmaking.
