A Q&A with Dyna Eldiaef a central participant in the film will take place after the screening.Conquering Breast Cancer is a powerful call to action to fight for a future without breast cancer. In Australia, breast cancer is often seen as a success story, with 5-year survival rates sitting at over 90%. But beyond these statistics are the real stories of women and their families who have been impacted by this disease. In Conquering Breast Cancer, presenter Sue Collins takes audiences beyond the numbers and into the lived experiences of these survivors. From the importance of early detection, to decisions around preventative surgery, each story reveals the emotional and physical toll of a disease that still claims 9 Australian lives a day. Weaving together stories of survivorship and insights from leading medical experts, the film challenges complacency and sheds light on how public education, early diagnosis, effective treatments and access to services are key to improving these statistics. The third instalment of the Conquering Cancer documentary series, the film highlights both the progress made and the work still to be done to find a cure and ensure that no more Australians lose their lives to the disease.
