The Screen Guide

It is estimated that between 60 and 70 percent of immigrants arriving in Australia with refugee status have been tortured in their home country. Humane therapy is required, often outside the mainstream mental health system, to restore trust and allow them to get on with their lives. In this sensitive documentary, Kay Donovan interviews torture victims as well as mental health workers and other volunteers engaged in counselling and rehabilitation.
