Looking Forward/Looking BLAK: Indigenous Identity in Australian Cinema

posted Tuesday, 1 Feb

The Bob Hawke Prime Ministerial Centre at UniSA is pleased to be supporting the 2011 BigPond Adelaide Film Festival as part the Stop(the)gap International Indigenous art in motion program.

Don't miss admired film critic Margaret Pomeranz (At the Movies) as she chairs a discussion panel featuring acclaimed directors Rolf de Heer (Ten Canoes) and Beck Cole (Here I Am), and actors Rosalie Kunoth-Monks (Jedda) and Tom E Lewis (Chant of Jimmie Blacksmith).

They will explore, from a range of vantage points, the rapidly changing landscape of Indigenous representation and identity in Australian cinema.

The panel will follow a free film program of significant films that relate to the representation of Aboriginal people since the mid 1950s to 2011, all screening during the Big Pond Film Festival (24 February - 6 March, 2011.) Film details appear on the website entry for this forum.

The event is free, but RSVP is essential via the website or by phoning (08) 8302 0215. The forum will be held on Sunday, 6 March, 2011. Doors open at 2.30pm for a 3.00pm start. Scoot on over to the Bradley Forum, UniSA City West campus, Hawke Building (Level 5, 50 North Terrace, Adelaide.)
