The Screen Guide

It has been 10 years since the Royal Commission into Aboriginal Deaths in Custody, 10 years in which deaths in custody have doubled. The most recent death in custody was Evan Slatter, a young man who committed suicide by hanging himself in his single cell at the Hakea Correctional Centre. Julie Nimmo attended his funeral in an attempt to illustrate to viewers the massive impact a suicide in custody has in the Aboriginal community. Part of ICAM series.
