Anthea Kennedy & Ian Wiblin | 2025 | UK | 123’ | digital | English spoken 
 
Kennedy and Wiblin’s radical, new artist documentary returns to locations associated with the 1933 Reichstag fire – which cemented Nazi rule – and the experiences of German Jewish pioneer birdsong recordist Ludwig Koch (1881-1974), who escaped Berlin and latterly joined the BBC. Sound (including the use of Koch’s recordings) and image assume dynamic relationships with forensic accounts of persecution and creative endeavour, foregrounding place and the legacies of history.  

Alarm Notes will screen 17 May 7:30pm and again on the 31 May 7:30pm. 

The screening of Alarm Notes will be followed by a Q&A with the filmmakers.
