Summary
From the director of The Black Power Mixtape comes a bold and fresh visual narrative on Africa, based on newly discovered archive material covering the struggle for liberation from colonial rule in the late '60s and '70s, accompanied by text from Frantz Fanon's The Wretched of the Earth. Director Goran Hugo Olsson gathers footage of anti-imperialist liberation movements from the 1970s onward, drawn from the Swedish Television archives, and crafts a powerful document that brings us face-to-face with the people for whom Fanon's writings were not just rhetoric, but a reality.

Summary
Based on Hannie Rayson's award-winning play, Hotel Sorrento explores the delicate undercurrent of memories and secrets during a long-overdue family reunion in the sleepy Australian seaside town of Sorrento, where shadows of the past catch up with three decidedly different sisters. A successful writer with a book about to be published and residing in the cultural melting-pot of London, Meg (Caroline Goodall, Schindler's List) carries with her a stifling spirit and mystery which unsettles her other siblings: Pippa (Tara Morice, Strictly Ballroom) a fast-talking businesswoman visiting from New York and reserved single mother Hilary (Caroline Gillmer, Evil Angels), who looks after their dad Wal (AFI Award winner Ray Barrett), whilst raising her teenage son Troy (Ben Thomas, Round The Twist). Catching up on all things family, discussing the great cultural divide and matters much closer to home, the three sisters soon uncover a truth that will not only turn their lives around, but shake the well-established foundations of 'Hotel Sorrento' forever. Also featuring Oscar® nominee Joan Plowright (Enchanted April), John Hargreaves (Don's Party), Nicholas Bell (Shine) and directed by internationally acclaimed filmmaker Richard Franklin (Brilliant Lies), Hotel Sorrento is an absorbing story of a family united by love and torn apart by betrayal.

Summary
Appraisal is a means of measuring individual performance, but how do you measure the performance of the workforce as a whole? Typically companies look at factors such as labour turnover, productivity and wastage rates. Absenteeism, the lost time rate, and lateness are all key indicators, too. But it's one thing for staff to turn up for work - it's another whether they work productively when they get there. And while productivity is relatively easy to calculate in a factory, it's much harder in a service business - and even harder still in the public sector. Figures have their limitations and have to be qualified by common sense.

Summary
Australia's slave trade is an untold story. Few people know that the Australian sugar industry was founded on the sweat of men and women enticed or kidnapped from the islands of the South Pacific. Sugar Slaves is the story of that human traffic, euphemistically known as "blackbirding". Between 1863 and 1904 about 60,000 islanders were transported to the colony of Queensland, where they toiled to create the sugar plantations of the far north. Then, after the introduction of a White Australia policy, most were deported. A few thousand were permitted to remain and today north Queensland is home to 20,000 of their descendants. In 1994 Australian Islanders at last won official recognition as a distinct ethnic group. According to a Government sponsored report, it has suffered "a century of racial discrimination and harsh treatment..." Now Islanders are beginning to trace their history and are finding their long-lost relatives in Vanuatu, the Solomon Islands and other Pacific nations. A unique community - the only substantial black migrant group in Australia - is at last uncovering the little known story of Australia's sugar slaves.
