Looking for Alibrandi () - IMDb C ursed women, shame, class, migrant identity, death — these are the themes that coalesce in the singular, coming-of-age film Looking for Alibrandi. Twenty years after release it has lost none of its emotional sting. She navigates a jagged relationship with her matriarchal Italian family, including mother Greta Scacchi and grandmother Elena Cottaconfronts xenophobia and class anxiety at her private Catholic school, develops a relationship Looking for Alibrandi her out-of-the-picture father Anthony LaPagliadates, studies and wrestles with her own in-flux identity. Growing up with Italian grandparents and attending Looking for Alibrandi vicious Catholic Sydney high school, I clung to the book and later film because it held a mirror to my upbringing, previously unseen in pop Looking for Alibrandi. Beyond those specific similarities, it also understood that the experience of teenage girlhood is plagued by cruelty, cluelessness and soul-crushing indignities. Written, directed and produced by three women on their first feature film, Looking for Alibrandi was a critical and commercial hit, winning best film at the Australian Film Institute awards in I cried. But Tristram had just done Strictly Ballroom, which I did love. I think they were just finding it hard to find the right person to write the script. Anyone who tried, you know, there was a bit of cultural insensitivity to the work. So when he brought Robyn Kershaw [on] as the producer, that for me started really shaping everything. Kershaw: I met with pretty much every single Looking for Alibrandi director at the time. I think I knew that it needed to be someone who was coming of age, like I was. It was Looking for Alibrandi coming-of-age experience for me as a film-maker, and for the director and for Melina as a screenwriter. Woods: We worked together for three years before it came out. I was very mindful that this was the most-stolen book out of any school library. That was a dubious honour. This was a really well-known book and a much-loved character. We put ads in the Italian and Serbian newspapers, we ran ads on Triple J, we wrote to the drama clubs of schools. We wanted to open up [the role] to where these characters could actually come from, rather than going to the names of teenage Looking for Alibrandi and actresses that had done the work before. We wanted it to be authentic. Miranda Alibrandi : I had to fly myself up to do a cattle call audition … It was almost like a dance audition. They read out the names of the people they wanted to stay after every section. Woods : The way [Miranda] took on that role was pretty amazing. She really had an enormous amount of stamina and understanding of the character and heart and Looking for Alibrandi for it. She just did a beautiful job. I was Looking for Alibrandi while I was writing the script and Looking for Alibrandi it was filmed, so I had the pleasure of my students being in a Looking for Alibrandi of the group scenes. Some of my students are the pallbearers in the funeral scene. Miranda: I find it really, really hard to watch people be pallbearers when they carry someone they love or care about. Woods: That image of the boys from the school putting their friend on their shoulders was one of the Looking for Alibrandi images I had about the film. I always knew Looking for Alibrandi that was really important, because I could not imagine what it would be like to carry your friend Looking for Alibrandi those circumstances. I think that the music definitely helped with that. It was just heartbreaking. Woods: It lifted Looking for Alibrandi into a different sphere. It felt more poignant to younger people than the original U2 version. I think the anger and confusion when someone kills themselves was conveyed really well in the film. It was also conveyed really well that life Looking for Alibrandi on after that person passes. Kershaw: My daughter, who I was pregnant with in — we used to refer to her as our Alibrandi baby — she actually watched it and had no idea about [my involvement].

  • Respecting Protocols for Representing Aboriginal Cultures
    Respecting Protocols for Representing Aboriginal Cultures JARED THOMAS David Unaipon College of Indigenous Education and Research University of South Australia This essay undertakes a detailed discussion of how respecting protocols for representing Indigenous cultures supports the interests of Indigenous communities and producers of stories with Indigenous content. To highlight the importance of Indigenous protocols I review the prominence and reception of Aboriginal stories in Australian film and literature and discuss how protocol guidelines can prevent problematic representations. I demonstrate how protocols influenced writing Calypso Summer (2014), a novel exploring issues relating to my cultural group, the Nukunu, to illustrate the challenges encountered and benefits gained from employing Indigenous representation protocols. The key ideas discussed in this paper are that observation of Indigenous protocols serves to maintain Aboriginal culture which underpins the protection of the environment and relations between individuals and communities. Representations of Aboriginal culture that are developed without observation of Indigenous protocols are more likely to misrepresent Aboriginal people and communities and undermine opportunities for the sharing of knowledge and strengthening of Aboriginal communities and their relationships with others. I show how Aboriginal people are taking the lead in representing our cultures, observing protocols in the development of artistic works and communicating protocols in order to protect the interests of Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal producers of work that features Indigenous content and the communities such works relate to. Aboriginal Cultures: Engagement and Representation In recent decades works of poetry, autobiography and fiction by Aboriginal people have gained national and international recognition. The success of Oodgeroo Noonuccal’s poetry from the 1960s demonstrated early interest in Aboriginal writing that has since considerably grown.
