Only 15% of sexual assaults are reported to the police. Very few of these make it to court, and a tiny fraction result in conviction. Shame and fear collide, making it feel impossible to even say the words “I was raped”, let alone seek justice. Sandra* chose not to remain silent. This is Sandra's story, told in her words, through her eyes. Telling her story has given her strength. A little known NT law prevents her from being identified, leaving her feeling powerless once more. Sandra now seeks to challenge this law, to give other victims a voice.
180-second documentaries that aim to have the viewer ‘do a 180’ on a topic relevant to Australian women.
On The Rocks is an Australian documentary that immerses us in the passionate and desperate fight of a small community trying to save their homes. A film that gets behind the headlines of Australia's most controversial public housing sale, told through the eyes of those at the vanguard. An entire suburb in the heart of Sydney is up for sale, and the state government says the decision is final, but for this group of residents the battle is anything but over. On The Rocks shines a light on the Australian housing crisis, and investigates why the system is so broken. Compelling, bold and raw, On The Rocks will shake you to your core, and have you question why we call Australia fair.
