Australian Rules

Home | Up

"Australian Rules is definitely a movie of two halves - the first being a fairly light look at a small South Australian fishing town and its love of its resurgent football team - then it moves inexorably into the dark territory of racism, domestic violence, abuse and death." (James Anthony)

 

This is a film about racism, power, abuse and gender relationships in a small Australian country town. Students explore the narrative and the ways in which the embedded values reflect their experience of the world.
