Wild: Beyond the Deconstruction
Feature
Deane Williams

To begin this discussion of Ross Gibson's new film 'Wild' it may be useful to trace its origins to his 1984 film 'Camera Natura'. The earlier film employed an essay mode to deconstruct the discourses around non-Aboriginal imaging of the landscape.

Monica Pellizari's Short Black Look at the Italian-Australian Experience
Feature
Rose Capp
