who will be remembered here

Challenging the dominant histories of Scotland, this tender work invites us to listen to the landscape — hearing echoes of the marginalised voices we have been made to forget.

This film is a cry against the erasure of cultures, languages and identities, told with passion and splendour. History forgets and history remembers, in a process that is not neutral. A singular narrative dominates: books are burnt, dissenters are imprisoned and memories fade. But history is not over. Our movements not only send vibrations towards the future, but into the past. Four queer voices speak in striking locations across Scotland, asking us whose bodies moved the wheels of our industry, whose hands placed the stones of our castles and whose fingers made room in the earth for our crops. When the history books don’t tell the full story, we look to the land itself.
