The Dust Never Settles
Director: Jess Dickenson
Year: 2010
The Dust Never Settles is composed of footage recorded during a fourteen month, 50,000 km road tour of Australia with a soundtrack by The Dirty Three. Placing fascinating, often humorous encounters with the unconventional individuals who inhabit some of the country's most remote areas against a wilderness of unimaginable magnitude, the director transcends conventions of traditional documentary with her impartial approach and distinctive visual style. The Dust Never Settles is a rare document of the endlessly diverse landscape and culture of a continent, and a unique record of contemporary Australia.

The Things We Don't Say
Director: Ornella Mutoni
Year: 2024
A group of young adults born during or just after the 1994 genocide against Rwanda's Tutsi people gather to find the courage to break a powerful taboo. Rwanda is one of the few nations in the world providing specialist counselling for children conceived through rape, who number 10,000 across the country. Here, course leader Emilienne, a mother, therapist and genocide survivor, helps the group to imagine a future free from family secrets and societal stigma. In a circle of supportive peers, they tell their individual stories and face their struggles together, in the hope their participation will advocate for others facing similar trauma.
