Join us this NAIDOC week for a special screening of the Unfinished Business Documentary at Doncaster Library.
This moving documentary tells the stories of 30 First Nations people living with disabilities. Their deeply personal stories are complex and intertwined with Australia’s political and social history, which has resulted in today’s unacceptably high rates of disability in Australia’s First Nations Communities.
Their stories are also featured in the Unfinished Business exhibition, which is showing at Manningham Art Gallery until Saturday 29 July.
Following the screening, there will be a Q&A with Uncle John Baxter: Latja Latja/Narungga man, Board Member Reconciliation Victoria and First Peoples Disability Network, Aboriginal Partnership Coordinator - Brotherhood of St Laurence/NDIS, participant and creative collaborator of Unfinished Business.
Attendees will also have the chance to view the exhibition at their own pace.
The Unfinished Business Documentary is a creative collaboration between brothers, Liam and Dieter Knierim, Belinda Mason Knierim OAM, and participants.
This is a free and accessible event. Bookings not required. Refreshments will be provided.
Warning: First Nations peoples should be aware that this exhibition contains images, voices, or names of deceased persons.
