'A discussion of the representation of Lebanese Muslims in Australian media, with a focus on two films by documentary maker Tom Zubrycki: 'Billal' and 'Temple of Dreams'.'
Epigraph:
It's probably wrong calling it a Lebanese diaspora, that's too generous and not a very useful term. This is a mixture of Australian Lebanese, Islamic - it's a particular community and a particular expression in Australia. The expression has as much to do with the prevailing political climate as anything else. (Zubrycki 2008)
