Review of Our Generation (2010) by Huw G — 29 Dec 2011
A protest documentary rather than a film, and really one for the activists. It does tell you a lot of new things (I didn't know racial discrimination laws had been suspended as part of the intervention), but falls down badly when it comes to optimism & practical ways forward.
Even when you're shown hope in the form of people teaching their kids skills their parents taught them, it turns out this is just a set-up to introduce the fact that promised funding is being withheld until land rights are signed over on 40 year leases to facilitate more mining on traditional lands.
