Utopia

Documentary directed by award-winning film-maker and journalist John Pilger. Aiming to uncover the truth about Australia's treatment of its Aboriginal people, Pilger travels to a remote region in the West dubbed 'Utopia' where the reality is far removed from the perfection suggested by its title. Home to a large population of indigenous people, the area is a telling example of the way in which Australia's first inhabitants are being forced into poverty while the white ruling classes benefit from the nation's numerous and abundant resources.
