National Reconciliation Week film screening: Audrey Napanangka

Come along to the Annual EChO film screening during National Reconciliation Week 2024 to view Audrey Napanangka,  in collaboration with Pennington Children's Centre. 

Audrey Napanangka was born at a time when the world was changing for the people in the Central Australian Desert. Settler colonisation was permeating the desert and forced changes and the fusion of two worlds shifted Audrey’s life forever. Today, Audrey, with her Sicilian husband Santo, raises young people to walk in many worlds, by centering culture, language, and Law in their lives alongside mainstream education. The intimate footage filmed over 10 years in Mparntwe (Alice Springs), Yuendumu and Audrey’s Warlpiri country Mount Theo, showcases a heartwarming story about the power of kinship and family in what is known as Australia.

As Australia considers truth telling, this is a story of love and survival that gives voice to an extraordinary inter-generational family.

Light refreshments provided. Please note due to the nature of this event, virtual access will not be provided.
