Past Truths/Bright Futures
11/10/2023 @ 5:15 pm - 7:15 pm
FreeAn evening of history and hope with local historian Dr Marguerita Stephens and local documentary film-maker James Freemantle.
The Years of Terror meticulously documents the struggle of the Kulin clans to hold Country as La Trobe unleashed ‘the terror of British law’ on them.
Based on the journal of Assistant Protector William Thomas, this work provides a new history of colonisation at Port Phillip Naarm, bringing the focus to bear on those violently dispossessed of lands and waters, theirs from time immemorial.
Bush to Belly is a 52 min documentary by James Freemantle, with narration by Deborah Mailman.
It’s a gorgeous story. You’re going to love these kids doing great work up in the Kimberley! Deborah Mailman
7 Gooniyandi kids load their espresso machine in a 4-wheel drive and travel the Gibb River Road to make lattes, cappuccinos and espressos for cyclists in some of Australia’s wildest terrain. But Bush to Belly is about more than coffee…
…bulldust, bikes and rich cultural exchange, as a group of Indigenous kids shape their destinies.
Bush to Belly has been screened on ABC International and NITV.
