Making Australian Histories
How are documentary filmmakers working with ideas of 'nation' and story 
telling ?

Three experienced documentary filmmakers with very different approaches 
to Australian history and documentary will screen excerpts and discuss 
their recent TV series and works-in-progress. A historian will respond 
to their work in discussion with the audience.

Their work includes reality TV, dramatisation, compilation archival, 
Indigenous storytelling and a deconstructionist 'cross platform' DVD, 
film, installation approach.

The panel discussion explores questions of memory, history and ‘ 
narrating the nation' . It will also consider the international 
co-production contexts of some of these documentary programs.
