Photographical Act 1968 returns to those timeless cliches by questioning professionals of the photography, but also historians, sociologists or important figures of this period. These speakers will weave the historic, esthetic and journalistic links, of photos which, by bringing back the war, the racism, the social contesting and the African injustice, establish the tangled history of our time and guarantee it as long as we shall know how to listen and to look at them.
