Recording Memories from Political Conflict: a film-makers journey’ by Cahal
McLaughlin
Intellect Books, Bristol, 2010
ISBN 9781841503011  £19.95 pbk

Based on work the author has carried out with survivor groups in Northern
Ireland and South Africa, Recording Memories from Political Violence
combines written and audiovisual texts to describe and analyze the use of
documentary film-making in recording experiences of political conflict. A
variety of issues relevant to the genre are addressed at length, including
the importance of ethics in the collaboration between the film-maker and the
participant and the effect of location on the accounts of participants.
McLaughlin draws on the diverse fields of film and cultural studies, as well
as nearly twenty years of production experience, in this informed and
instructive contribution to documentary film-making and post-conflict
studies.
