Last April, while we were working in Cairo, we got to spend time with Ramy Essam and other young artists who had helped to define the Egyptian Revolution. We were inspired by their example to develop the model that drives The Freedom Films. A model that allows our art to beat with the hearts of those who share our aspirations.
Ramy described how, before the Revolution, he had struggled to find a stage for his political voice. While he was participating in the 18 Days though, his music emerged as a natural piece of the protest. It was elevated by the protesters themselves, recorded by them on whatever camera was available and distributed across Egypt and around the world on the wings of their enthusiasm so that, without the mediation of any record label, just the internet and word-of-mouth and a devout desire for change, his music discovered its place in the heart of the Egyptian Revolution. In history. It was the people who decided what was meaningful, not the executives. This is the future for a revolutionary art.
