Floodland Film with panel discussion | Broulee Brewhouse

Sydney Film Festival award winning documentary Floodland captures the 2022 Lismore floods through the eyes of the residents who lived through them.

It moves beyond the news cycle to highlight the First Nations healing practices and community-led solutions that are so vital for Australia’s future.

We'll be hosting a special event screening and panel discussion at Broulee Brewhouse on Thursday 20 August with community organisations to discuss disaster response and community resilience in the Eurobodalla region. On the panel will be:

• Jordan Nye - Muladha Gamara

• Michelle Hamrosi - SHASA (Southcoast Health and Sustainability Alliance)

• Cath Leach - Catfish Creative

FLOODLAND is a story about the strength found in recovery, the ability for communities to pull together in the face of disaster, and the urgent conversations being prompted by the reality of our changing climate. The events of the Lismore floods are an opportunity for our regional community to learn about disaster resilience in the face of droughts and bushfires; an invitation to pull together and bounce back in the face of hardship. 

We are pleased that $2 from every ticket sold will be donated to Resilient Lismore, a community-based charity works to support community-based disaster preparedness, recovery and and resilience in Lismore.
