SYNOPSIS
From acclaimed director Jolyon Hoff (Searching for Michael Peterson, The Staging Post) comes a deeply touching journey of discovery, identity and connection, told through the eyes of Afghan Hazara former-refugee Muzafar Ali.
Arriving in Australia, Muzafar discovers that Afghans have been an integral part of Australia for over 160 years. He begins to photograph their descendants in an attempt to understand his new Afghan-Australian identity. Then the Taliban take over Afghanistan and his old country comes calling.
Why not plan a South West adventure at the same time as CinefestOZ? We recommend making accommodation, restaurant and tour bookings early to avoid disappointment. Plan your stay and 'wander out yonder' with Western Australia in Australia’s South West and Visit Bunbury Geographe.
