About the event
Taken from her parents during a time when Aboriginal children were removed from their families through Government mandated policy, Helen was raised by a middle-class family in the suburbs of Perth and believed she was their biological daughter until the age of 14.
Despite being raised by a very loving foster family, Helen has never felt like she truly belonged. Not white, not black, she walks a very lonely grey line.
This is her story of hurt, a longing to find her true self and to finally be accepted for who she is.
Pepperberry and Pumpkin soup with Wattleseed and Lemon Myrtle Damper from Kuditj Kitchen will be served prior to the film screening and is included in the ticket price.
There will be a Q and A session following the film.
Any funds raised from this event will be donated to Healing Foundation a national Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander organisation that partners with communities to address the ongoing trauma caused by actions like the forced removal of children from their families.
