Oceans Apart

A documentary about three Aboriginal women: Rosalie in her mid-fifties, grew up on a reserve in La Perouse and now works as an administrator for the performing arts at the Australian Council; Margaret in her mid-thirties, a tribal/urban woman from Northern Territory, is now a lecturer in Aboriginal Studies at the University of Technology; and 18-year-old Britta who was adopted at birth and raised in Denmark, and is now working as a radio journalist and community radio broadcaster. Each of the women reflects various perspectives of themselves as Aborigines and as women, according to their family backgrounds and political influences that surround other Aboriginal women in their peer group. Part of Blackout series.
