A film about the Catalan protest singer Raimon, about 40 years of fascism in Spain, and about using songs to fight fascism. “In Raimon – Songs Against Fear, Spanish political emigrés tell how Raimon's songs kindle their hopes that democratic forces will prevail. [...] Dindo's film – which also includes
excerpts from works by Spanish filmmaker colleagues as well as archival footage – is much more than the portrait of a singer: it captures a whole political situation.” (Verena Zimmermann)
