Strange Birds in Paradise - A West Papuan Story
Film night at the Melbourne International Film Festival
Directed by Charlie Hill-Smith, Australia 2009 75 minutes.
The story of people confronting tyranny with the joyful power of art, music and self expression.
Intensely political and emotional, this documentary is a celebration of West Papua, told through story, music and song.
It is also a testament to the determination of the director, whose passion for Melanesian culture has driven him since his teenage years.
