Description
It's the 1930's in outback Australia. Three young Aboriginal girls - sisters Molly (Everlyn Sampi) and Daisy (Tianna Sansbury) and their cousin Gracie (Laura Minaghan) are snatched from their mother's arms in Jigalong, Western Australia and sent to a remote settlement at Moor River. 1500 miles away from home, distanced from their mothers and forced to adapt to astrange new world, the girls attempt the impossible and embark on a daring escape.
What ensues is an epic journey across unforgiving landscape that will test the girls' very will to survive. Their only resources - tenacity, determination, ingenuity and each other. Their one hope - find the rabbit proof fence that might juts guide them home.
Directed by Phillip Noyce (The Quiet American) and based on a true story, Rabbit Proof Fence deals with the controversial policy introduced in Australia in the 1930's to eradicate Aboriginals from future generations through enforced couplings with whites, and the removal of aboriginal children from their parents and into secure camps for re-education.
