1 form y separately published work icon Burn David Selvarajah Vadiveloo , ( dir. David Selvarajah Vadiveloo ) Australia : Community Prophets , 2009 Z1645452 2009 single work film/TV crime

'Burn follows the story of 16-year-old Tee, whose life is thrown into chaos when a late-night drive with older boys erupts into violence. This gritty crime drama was improvised by the young cast and shows how high-risk group behaviour can quickly spin out of control.'

1 form y separately published work icon Beyond Sorry David Selvarajah Vadiveloo , David Selvarajah Vadiveloo (director), 2003 8863654 2003 single work film/TV

'Zita Wallace was taken from her Arrernte family at the age of eight. When she returned to her traditional community 43 years later she was rejected and labelled “a white devil”.'

'Aggie Abbott, an Arrernte woman and also a “half-caste”, was hidden from the Aboriginal Protector at the same time Zita was taken. Today she still has her law, her language and her culture but lives in abject poverty.'

'This is the remarkable tale of two women who have forged a new friendship and are taking the debate of the stolen generation “beyond sorry”.' (Source: CAAMA website)
