SYNOPSIS

Facing the Numbers is a cinematic exploration of the human stories behind the appalling statistics of First Nations disadvantage in the criminal justice system in Australia. This project will bring faces to these numbers, highlighting the systemic racism experienced by Aboriginal people that sees us over-represented in these systems.

The supporting campaign will link each story to a relevant action that people can take – mobilising a groundswell of Australians and driving them to take meaningful action.
