This is the third in a series of short films under the title ‘Volunteers for Liberty: Archives and memory – preserving the story of the International Brigades’, which are being produced by Platform Films for the IBMT and the Marx Memorial Library. Another two films will follow in coming months, on the themes of political activism and refugees. The films publicise the extensive archives of the International Brigades and Spanish Civil War held by the Marx Memorial Library, which were digitally catalogued in 2017/18 in a project in which the IBMT was a partner and which received funding from The National Archives.
