GENOCIDE in the Wildflower State 

Documentary feature about a violent, state-run system of eugenics, racial absorption, and social assimilation in Twentieth-Century Western Australia.

The film offers a deeply moving and disturbing exposé of the often denied and dismissed reality of racist state thinking, and the resulting misery families experience today. It gives voice to Survivors’ proposals on what must be done to redress the wrongs.

Director: Frank Rijavec 59 min 2024 (M)

Dandjoo: Be a Voice for Generations 

Dandjoo : Be a Voice for Generations looks at the island of Wadjemup - Rottnest from the perspective of the Wadjemup Aboriginal Advisory Group.  These members have not only a cultural obligation to oversee the protection of the island but also honour what is the largest Aboriginal deaths in custody site in Australia.  They have their own attachment to the island but collectively they understand the crucial role that Aboriginal culture plays within the island; spiritually, cosmologically, historically and politically. These are their thoughts and memory-scape - hear their voice for the next generations...
