A special Q&A screening will be held to conclude Refugee Week at the Regent Cinemas in Ballarat. This screening will be hosted by Ballarat Afghan Action Group (BAAG)and a portion of ticket sales will be donated to them. The Q&A will include filmmakers Robyn Hughan and Steve Warne and will be moderated by Prue Bentley (ABC, South West Victoria). MC for the event will be Yacoob Kazan, BAAG member and proprietor of the popular Kazan Central Asian Restaurant.

'Journey Beyond Fear' is 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.

"Journey beyond Fear, an excellent documentary from Robyn Hughan, is a genuinely moving experience. This is a journey well worth taking"... 4 Stars - David Stratton, Weekend Australian
