I had never heard of this movie until today when I saw it in my Cultural Anthropology class.I was horrified by the treatment of the Aboriginals, but I loved the spirit of the people in it.I hope we can all learn from this sad time in history and never have it repeat itself again.I would highly recommend this film to anyone who likes a thought-provoking film as opposed to the usual Hollywood junk.I would hope though, that we as a people collectively have learned our lesson, but I don't know if we have evolved that much yet...That being said, the photography was superb, the scenery was pretty(albeit in a desolate) way.While I was watching this film, I couldn't help but think of all the racial/ethnic groups that have been penalized over time, such as the Jews during the Holocaust,the interment of Japanese-Americans during WW2, the Rawandan genocide in the mid 1990's...I thought that Molly's spirit was inspiring to say the least, when she finally broke down and cried, I wanted to cry right along with her. In closing, I was moved by this film and I don't say that too often.So if you only have a little bit of time, I say go and rent it because it is well worth your time.Very thought-provoking.
