VoicesintheShadows
Part of the Hidden in the Light franchise
Every film you have ever watched in a language that was not its original passed through a voice you never heard credited.
Somewhere in Paris, a writer is giving Hollywood films their French soul. In Los Angeles, a director teaches actors to perform in borrowed mouths. In Tokyo, one voice has been three generations of imaginary women. In Cairo, an architect decides how the Arab world hears cinema.
They are among the most necessary people in the room. They are never in the credits.
Voices in the Shadows follows four of them. Four cities. One film.
