A FEW HIGHLIGHTS...


Rabbit Proof Fence tells a tale of sorrow and tragedy which serves as a rendition of the suffering endured by those affiliated with the “stolen generation”. Between 1900 and the late 1960s, an estimated 30,000 Indigenous Aboriginal children were forcibly removed from their parents by Australian authorities.

The film takes place in 1931 at Jigalong, an Aboriginal settlement on the edge of the Little Sandy Desert in North West Australia. The children taken were relocated to Moore River Native Settlement near Perth.

The story was set in rural and regional Australia. At the core of this heartwarming gem was a psychological journey, disturbing at times, and populated with themes of which proved incredibly confronting.

Noyce's docu-drama was essentially a mesmerizing portrayal of a dark period in Australian history. An intermittent interval during which terrible and irrevocable crimes were committed in systemic fashion by White Australian society against the rural Aboriginal communities of the Outback.

In spite of the conciliating efforts of Prime Minister Rudd in 2008 to deliver the country's unconditional apology to the victims of antecedent political decisions, the matter remains an as yet unresolved and divisive issue across our multicultural and ethnically diverse demography.

Thanks alot. So all you need to do is critic the film and say whether or not it was good and why the film was made and for what purpose etc.

You should probably also mention film techniques, eg close-ups, landscape shots, musical score, etc, and how they contribute to the telling of the story.
