| Summary: | This documentary explores the life and work of one of Australia's most respected and pioneering documentary photographers. During the formative years of the Aboriginal rights campaign, Robert McFarlane documented Aboriginal activist Charles Perkins in one of Australia’s most iconic photos. McFarlane’s own personal journey is chronicled as he reveals the tragic impact of losing his young son. Linking archival footage and still photographic images with interviews, the film explores McFarlane’s important contribution to photojournalism. His images provide a window into the lives of others, documented without sentiment or nostalgia, where the real is more potent and intriguing than anything fabricated. |
