The Refugee Action Collective (RAC) Illawarra is screening Scattered People on Thursday, June 23 at the Aboriginal Corporation Community Centre, Wollongong. The film explores the power of music in the healing process and is told through the eyes of two Iranian musicians. It explores Australians' attitudes towards people seeking asylum.
"We are showing this film to highlight different ways people can come together, but also to show how unjust the treatment of refugees is in Australia," RAC Illawarra spokesperson, Dr Marg Perrott said. For more information about Scattered People: https://www.scatteredpeoplefilm.org/
