No Way to Forget

Richard Frankland
Australia 1996
12 min

Shane Franzis, an Aboriginal man, is an investigator for the Royal Commission into Aboriginal Deaths in Custody. Driving on an isolated country at night, he is haunted by things he has learnt. The film blends flashbacks and visions into his cruise. It's good to know a bit about the commission before watching this film. (Art Gallery of NSW with my own additions)
