AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'Utopia set to lift the veil on Australia’s “racist” treatment of its Aboriginal population, with the journalist calling the conditions faced by Australian Aboriginal people the country’s “dirtiest little secret”. The film Utopia will focus on the experiences of Aboriginal Australians living in Western Australia. Utopia is a vast region east of the Stuart Highway. But the film also compares the utopia of suburban Australia with the actual Utopia in the remote Australia. Utopia is a film about these two Australias.' (Source: Creative Spirit website)
