Register here by Friday 10 AugustMLS students are invited to join us for a special screening of Strong Female Lead, a documentary examining Australia’s struggle with women and power when a strong female takes the lead. Made entirely from archival footage, the film documents the vitriolic, sexist attacks that characterised Julia Gillard’s time in office.

The screening will be followed by a Q&A with the director, Tosca Looby, who will talk about the challenges and rewards of archival filmmaking.

This special event is part of the Visualising Corporate Authority workshop, a collaboration between the Laureate Program in Global Corporations and International Law, the Law, Literature and Humanities Association of Australasia, and the SSHRC Insight Grant ‘Visualizing Development’.
