Warwick Thornton | Australia | 86
Racist nationalism is on the rise of Australia, and it's swallowing up the stars. A constellation with tremendous cultural importance to Australia's Indigenous peoples has been adopted as the "Aussie Swazi" by white Australians associated with extreme nationalism. Award-winning Indigenous filmmaker Warwick Thornton returns to the Mead for a feature-length exploration of this urgent topic.
