FREE NAIDOC Film Screening for Seniors 55+_ In My Blood it Runs

Join us for a free film screening for Seniors (55+) this NAIDOC week of the celebrated film In My Blood It Runs. About this event Celebrate NAIDOC week and watch a FREE screening of the celebrated film 'In My Blood It Runs'! Dujuan is an inquisitive ten-year-old Arrernte/Garrwa boy who speaks three languages, understands his Aboriginal culture, loves his country and the natural world and seems to have a happy future in Mparntwe (Alice Springs). At home he is bright and contented, but problems begin at his mainstream school. His teachers are not trained to appreciate the students’ Indigenous knowledge, and the books that Dujuan must read speak of an Australia that is not his at all. As he faces increasing scrutiny from welfare and police, his family battle to keep him safe, grounded in language, culture and identity – the only solution they know works.
