AFC Big Screen - Touring Australian Films
Big Screen is a travelling film festival - an AFC initiative that takes a selection of contemporary and archival films,
documentaries and shorts to remote, regional and rural communities around Australia. Big Screen is supported by Toni
Collette, her colleagues Bryan Brown, David Wenham, Sam Worthington and Sophie Lee, as well as many beloved Australian
personalities. "The Boys", the provocative thriller starring Collette and Wenham, is among the Big Screen film
presentations.
Save Ningaloo Reef Campaign
The Ningaloo is a 280 km long 'fringing' coral reef skirting the Cape Range karst limestone peninsular, mid way up the
West Australian coastline, 1200km north of Perth. Ningaloo Reef is the longest western fringing coral reef and one of the
last healthy major coral reef systems in the world. Its region is so unique in its profound biodiversity that it easily
qualifies for World Heritage Listing. This has not yet happened, however the WA governement is currently
preparing a nomination. Toni joins the support with speaking out public about saving the Ningaloo and there has also been
a cover story in the Australia's "West Magazine" in 2002.
