"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.
