Rabbit-Proof Fence is based on a book by Doris Pilkington about her mother's extraordinary experiences as a member of the Stolen Generations.
Heartbreaking true story of three Aboriginal girls who, because of a state decree, are forcibly taken from their loving mothers and placed in a resettlement camp. Taking place in Australia in the 1930's, "Rabbit-Proof Fence" exposes the story of the 'Stolen Generation' - children of mixed race who were ripped from their families and trained to work as servants in white homes. The film follows three girls - Molly (Every Scampi), Daisy (Tirana Danbury) and Gracie (Laura Meagan) - as they escape the camp and embark on a dangerous 1,500 mile journey to return home.
From the late 19th century until the 1960s in Australia, half-Aboriginal children were forcibly removed from their families and sent to government-run institutions in an attempt to racially cleanse future generations, making them fully white. These half-caste children are known as the Stolen Generations.A small film with an exceedingly simple plot—the humanity of its characters and performances of its actors center stage—the film benefits tremendously from its director's action-thriller past, displaying a tight sense of pacing. It whisks you along, its 94 minutes gone in a flash.Hope this helps you decide.Thanks for reading! :)
