Summary |
"Shows how change was brought about by the actions of people willing to risk gaol for their anti censorship beliefs. Using The Little Red Schoolbook, and other publications of the time it traces the change and development of censorship laws and attitudes in Australia, asking in conclusion, as the film is brought up to date - how far have we really come? At the same time it is often an amusing look at the cultural hypocrisies Australians were living under, and the sometimes hilarious lengths authorities went to, to prevent change, while others tried to bring change about. Featuring a mixture of experts, participants of the time and questioning narration all inter-cut with clips from the period such as, news archives, and publications the period comes to life. (From Australia, in English)" --website |
