Kuba Dorabialski’s Venice Film Festival-selected Agata The Writer will join documentaries KUMARANGK: Sacred Women’s Business, Aftermath and The Forbidden Aunt at this year’s Adelaide Film Festival (AFF).
The AFF screening will be the film’s Australian debut, following its world premiere in Venice Film Festival sidebar Giornate degli Autori.
In KUMARANGK: Sacred Women’s Business, Ngarrindjeri/Wotjobaluk woman Tracey Rigney charts the Hindmarsh Island bridge affair, combining character interviews with archival footage from the 1980s and 1990s to examine the collision between Ngarrindjeri women’s sacred knowledge and development interests that engulfed South Australia.
Agata The Writer, Kumarangk: Sacred Women’s Business, Aftermath and The Forbidden Aunt are all backed by the Adelaide Film Festival Investment Fund.
“The Labor Government committed to an annual Adelaide Film Festival in 2022, and it is exciting to see this Festival continue to thrive four years on,” he said.
