Beatriz’s War is the first full-length feature film produced by East Timor, directed by Luigi Acquisto and Bety Reis
16 years after Beatriz's husband disappears during a brutal massacre by occupying Indonesian forces, she is troubled by his mysterious return: is he the young man she had lost or is he an impostor?
Join members of the YWCA Australia community for a unique opportunity to see A Guerra da Beatriz (Beatriz’s War), an important film rarely screened for Australian audiences.
Money raised will support two Timorese women to attend the World YWCA Council and fund a range of activities aimed at empowering young women’s groups in Timor Leste.
Cost: $20 or $12 for concession - includes light supper and refreshments.
Please RSVP for catering purposes by Monday 28 September 2015 to Gordana Morphett on 0410452624 or danam3@bigpond.com
