FanForce in Partnership with Leprosy Mission’s 150th Year globally, are proud to celebrate 25 years since Molokai was made with a release of news screenings across Australia.
Based on a true story, this drama focuses on Father Damien (David Wenham), a Roman Catholic priest from Belgium who takes up a post at a Hawaiian leprosy settlement. Appalled by the conditions that he finds the leprosy patients living in, Damien works tirelessly to aid the stricken people. In addition to making the colony more habitable, Damien tries to act as a spiritual guide for the beleaguered islanders, always selflessly putting the well-being of others first.

This screening is a fundraiser.
