Transition Blue Mountains to screen “Our Generation” film.
Tuesday, April 12th, 2011Transition Blue Mountains will host a screening of Our Generation, which documents the lives of Aboriginal people in the Northern Territory – the impact of the controversial intervention, being forced off traditional lands into townships crippled by social dysfunction, the removal of traditional languages from school education and unfair mining deals. Film makers Sinem Saban and Damien Curtis examine the issues of underlying disadvantage through the eyes of the Yolngu people of north-east Arnhem and canvass solutions that respect Aboriginal culture and dignity. Music is by John Butler Trio, Yothu Yindi, Archie Roach, Gurrumul, and Goanna.
