Watch our newly edited film which includes the journey that Extant made in 2005 to produce our first professional national and international tour of ‘Resistance’, a theatre adaptation of the autobiography of the French blind teenage resistance fighter Jacques Lusseyran.
This film also includes and interview between the company an a surviving member of the blind resistance movement and also highlights a commemorative project which Extant ran ten years later in 2015 called ‘Spirit of Resistance’, and that brought together young and old visually impaired participants to reflect on the meaning of ‘resistance’ in their lives.”
