BRISBANE — "The Sri Lankan government is a racist regime which has conducted a decades-long reign of terror against the Tamil people", Dr Brian Senewiratne, a Queensland medical specialist of Sinhala origin, said at a film night featuring My Daughter the Terrorist on August 30.

Senewiratne introduced the film with an impassioned declaration of support for the Tamil people's right to self-determination. He called for support for the Tamils from the government and people of Australia.

My Daughter the Terrorist presents a rare inside look at the Tamil Tigers, the national liberation movement and military force representing the Tamil people in Sri Lanka.
