Unstuck by Rayma Johnson
Friday, February 27, 2009
Unstuck is the story of a young Aboriginal woman who, after more than a year, has yet to come to terms with the death of her husband [also Aboriginal]. The woman has a recurring flash backs to the moments in her life after her husbands passing. One night her husband’s spirit comes to her, hoping to help heal the wounds of separation and move on in her life, just as he needs to move on in with his journey into the afterlife. His spirit guides her subconscious mind, allowing her to reconnect with her own spirit, and as the two spirits reconnect, it becomes clear that the woman will have to choose between remaining stuck in life with her grief, or to become Unstuck.

11.11 by Melissa Abrahams
Friday, February 27, 2009
11.11 is a mystical suspense about an aboriginal woman's psychic powers. Melissa is a first time filmmaker who is currently producing and co-directing her first documentary. Her stories are inspired by our past history, people and amazing places. "Aboriginal people have been master story tellers since the dreamtime, the chance to tell our stories on film is just an extension of our oral story telling history. Now we can finally let the truth be known and let our imagination soar".

Memory by Michelle Blanchard
Tuesday, February 24, 2009
Memory is a film about the extraordinary resilience of love, and its power to transcend cultural boundaries. It is also about the finality of death, and the ironic opportunity it can give us in terms of a moment of liberation. How does the death of someone we love affect us and move us to re-examine who we are and where we are going?

Mabo by Philip Mclaren
Tuesday, February 24, 2009

Yearn by Kristie Parker
Tuesday, February 24, 2009
Ruby doesn’t respond well to criticism, especially of
those she loves.
Yearn is about the spoken and often unspoken disapproval
experienced by people who are “different", and
the solidarity and loyalty forged among those that share that
mantle of exclusion. It is also about love, and how it is
made stronger through a defiant unity.
