1 5 form y separately published work icon Letters to Ali Clara Law , Eddie Fong Ling-Ching , ( dir. Clara Law ) Australia : Madman Cinema , 2004 Z1573017 2004 single work film/TV (taught in 2 units) An 'average' Australian family decides to help in a small way by writing to Ali, a fifteen-year-old Afghan boy detained at Port Hedland, unaccompanied by any relatives. This letter would prove to be the catalyst for a three-year on-going battle with Australian authorities to get Ali, then a minor, out of detention. Filmmakers Clara Law and Eddie Fong contacted Trish in September 2002 after reading the newspaper story and decided to make a film about Ali's case.
