Lockdown Sounds

This is series about the sounds of lockdown - the sounds we can hear, the sounds we miss, the sounds that are new and the sounds that are old. Each episode features people in lockdown considering the sounds around them - including the sounds that they want to come back, and maybe some they don't. Made by Nina Longfellow (producer, writer, editor) and Liz Giuffre (exec producer) - recorded and created on Aboriginal land, land that was never ceded.
