Australia, Rabbit and fence

{my movie of the week - Rabbit-Proof Fence (2002)}

Imagine you're a small kid. Eating what you want, learning what you like, humming what you feel. Some one suddenly captures and takes you away to other part of the country and makes you pray their rhythm and teach you the way they live. In such a tender age away from mother, family, away from your known locality that strange feeling is just unbearable. And Australia successfully did that for 'original living beings' of Australian continent for years !

'Rabbit-Proof Fence' is the true story of Molly Craig, a young black Australian girl who leads her younger sister and cousin in an escape from an internment camp, set up as a part of a government policy to train Aboriginal children as domestic workers and integrate them into white society.

I love Rabbit-Proof Fence movie as drama, as protest, as movie making and as poetry. It's a breathtaking story of defiance and triumph that has to be considered one of the most sublime films. At an economical 94 minutes, Rabbit-Proof Fence trims all the fat and tells its heartfelt and stirring story. It's an wonderfully shot movie with the beautiful usage of the celluloid.
