“From Under the Rubble” is a documentary about the 2009 bombing of Palestine by Israeli forces. Australian filmmakers Anne Tsoulis (Writer, Director & Producer) and John Moore (Producer) shed light on how civilians are impacted by war. In this age of instant global reporting, it is rare to hear from the most vulnerable of people – children. The events are narrated by child survivors of the Samouni family, and illustrated by animation of their drawings. This recount of the bombing in 2009 gives us a glimpse of the situation in Gaza now, and how the lives of Palestinian people are being torn apart.

Queer Visions: Out of the Archive - Formative Australian Documentaries Mercury Cinema

Join us for an evening of formative Australian queer documentary cinema as we present Witches and Faggots, Dykes and Poofters (dir. Digby Duncan, 1980, 45 mins), depicting the grassroots meetings, strategies, and organising efforts of Sydney’s lesbian and gay activists leading up to the first Mardi Gras in 1978; and, Homosexuality: A Film for Discussion (dir. Barbara Creed, 1975, 43 mins), a series of candid testimonies from homosexual men and women, capturing a diverse range of perspectives on homosexuality during a time when it was still criminalised in all Australian states and territories. These two groundbreaking Australian documentaries were critical to the primary shaping of early queer political resistance and are not just historical artefacts — they are living records of protest, and capture critical political action. Archival queer films remind us of the work that has come before and challenge us to see the present in relation to these earlier struggles.

Short introduction from esteemed scholar Barbara Creed, followed by a post-film discussion and live readings of archival materials.

Queer Visions is supported by UniSA Justice and Society and Network for Studies in Gender, Sexualities and Equity.
