Produced by the Human Rights Media Centre in Cape Town, the trilogy tells the stories of those from a variety of backgrounds - torture victims, displacement, assassination attempts - over a period of 20 years. Finally, the Prison's Memory Archive is a collection of memories from the prisons during the political conflict known as the Troubles in the north of Ireland.\u003c\/p\u003e In societies emerging out of, or still addressing, political violence, the need to create platforms for survivors to tell their stories as a form of public acknowledgement and personal healing is well documented. Some societies have created official forms, e.g. the Truth and Reconciliation Commission in South Africa, while others rely on community, or bottom-up, initiatives, e.g. Accounts of the Conflict in Ireland. Each society, each community, and each project is contingent on the nature of the violence and the needs of the communities who have suffered. The use of documentary film, or audiovisual recording, is one such method of creating a platform for such purposes. The role of participatory practices is an important element in how such filmmaking might address issues of trauma, memory, and injustice.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCahal McLaughlin is professor of film studies at Queen's University Belfast and director of the Prisons Memory Archive.
