ROGER Waters is adding his name to a documentary project rooted in Palestinian art and resistance.

The Pink Floyd co-founder has boarded a film titled “Freedom Theatre”, a documentary that centres on Palestinian creative work and the idea of resistance through culture.

Beyond Waters’ involvement, details about the production — including a release plan, additional participants or where it will premiere — aren’t included in the information available.

Waters has long been a high-profile figure whose public activities frequently draw attention well beyond music, and his attachment to a film with an explicitly political and cultural remit is likely to do the same.

For now, the key development is simple: “Freedom Theatre” has gained a globally recognisable rock name as it moves forward as a Palestinian art and resistance documentary.
