Full Description
Running Time 09:12 mins.
A short activist archival documentary covering the Villawood detention centre convergence in 2006. Over 500 people met in Sydney over the Easter weekend to draw attention once again to the ongoing fight to end mandatory detention in Australia. Since 2006, most of Australia's detention centres have largely been removed from the mainland - people are now detained against their will in off-shore facilities... away from public scrutiny. Let us not forget the suffering of the people 'still behind razor wire.'
