About Journey Beyond Fear: A character driven film, featuring three magnetic daughters and shot over 7 years in Malaysia and Australia, it’s an extraordinary psychological study of the effects of refugee status.  Told through the eyes of a teenage girl and her refugee family in pursuit of resettlement, this emotional rollercoaster takes us from despair to joy through hope, humour and love – shattering prevailing stereotypes. Doors open at 7pm with the documentary screening at 7.30pm.  After the documentary there will be a discussion and Q&A featuring Writer/Director, Robyn Hughan and Producer Steve Warne The event is an initiative of the Inspiring Women Connect Group. All funds raised by this event will be donated to the Asylum Seeker Resource Centre and the filmmakers.  Discounted tickets are available through the office for those unable to afford the listed price.
