ABOUT THE EVENT:
As a part of the City of Fremantle’s commitment to reconciliation, we are pleased to announce the next event as a part of the City’s Truth Telling program: FOCUS: First Nation Films
Over 2 Birak first summer nights, we welcome all to come sit under the stars in the grounds of Walyalup Fremantle Arts Centre to connect, listen and learn.
With live music and a curated selection of documentary feature and short films, this free event will bring together a tapestry of stories that speak to the impacts of colonisation and to the resilience and self-determination of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples.
With your host Ron Bradfield Jnr, and guest speakers (TBA), including one of Australia’s finest contemporary historical documentary makers Tom Murray, this considered and special weekend of free music, conversations and films is a unique opportunity not to be missed.
The Sunday evening showing will follow our Sunday Music program, which Kiwirrkurra Band take to the stage.
