Lords of the Soil
Leeton Screening of Lords of the Soil Presented By Western Riverina Arts
Saturday 23 May 2:00pm | $35 GA
Experience the acclaimed Australian film Lords of the Soil at this special Leeton screening, followed by a live Q&A with the filmmakers.
Produced by Kensington House Entertainment in association with Miil Miil Productions, the 60-minute feature is set in the Riverina in the Autumn of 1866 and explores the delicate and complex relationships between early European settlers and the Wiradjuri people, offering a moving portrayal of a shared, yet rarely seen, Australian history.
“Lords of the Soil is bringing together the very best the Riverina has to offer; its history, its landscape, and its people, to share a story with audiences around the world.” says Speer.
“At the heart of this film is kindness, and the hope that humankind is still capable of such a thing. That we are both passengers and drivers of history.”
The film was financed with support from Western Riverina Arts and The Aboriginal Languages Trust, along with support from a wide range of community partners and businesses, including GRAPA, Riverina Water & Kelly & Partners Business Accountants, as well as support from both Griffith City Council and Wagga City Council.
This special screening forms part of the film’s regional theatrical tour across New South Wales. Following the screening, audiences will have the opportunity to participate in a live Q&A with members of the filmmaking team.
