Freedom Stories Movie and Dinner
Event Information
Description
Freedom Stories is a collaborative documentary project from Flying Carpet Films. It explores the achievements and stories of people who arrived in Australian waters seeking asylum from the Middle East around 2001. Locked in remote detention centres and then placed on temporary protection visas, their limbo lasted for years. Now Australian citizens, they are building secure lives and contributing to their new country.
“The collective wisdom of the characters is astonishing. They’ve had so much taken from them, yet they give so much.” Arnold Zable – award-winning author & storyteller
Dinner at 5:30 pm.
Movie starts at 6:45pm
All proceeds will be used to enable people in our community, who are seeking asylum, to access the legal support vital for review processes.
$35 ticket price is inclusive of an all-you-can-eat meal, tea and coffee.
