Review of Balibo (2009) by Luke T — 30 Mar 2010
This slow documentary style film examines what happened to specific journalists in Balibo, East Timor, around the time that Indonesian forces came in. Its importance from an Australian perspective comes from the relationship, during the events and subsequent until now, between Australia, Indonesia and East Timor.
Tensions between all three nations, and even more between those involved, over this event still simmer even now.
