{en} Rabbit-Proof Fence [1] (Australia, 2002), directed by Phillip Noyce.
In 1931, three half-white, half-Aboriginal girls escape after being plucked from their houses to be trained as domestic staff, and set off on a journey across the Outback.
<25 Best Australian Movies> Rabbit-Proof Fence is one of the most heart-wrenching movies set in Australia, one that reveals the horrific cruelty inflicted on the Stolen Generation of this continent’s First Nations people. Based on the 1996 book Follow The Rabbit-Proof Fence by Doris Pilkington Garimara (which, in turn, is loosely based on the true story of the author’s mother), it follows three Aboriginal girls’ escape from the Moore River Native Settlement in an attempt to find their way home to their families. Their only guide on the 1,500-mile journey is the “rabbit-proof fence” that ran the length of the country, a failed attempt at pest control by colonial invaders.
