Rabbit- Proof Fence.
Rabbit-Proof Fence was an outstanding movie. It kept you on the edge of your seat and wanting more. It helped me learn a lot about the Aboriginal culture; it was very informational. It was a story of 3 girls who were captured, put in a camp, but very determined to return home. From the beginning of the movie it broke my heart. I can only imagine what it would be like to be pried away from your family not sure when or if you would ever return. It was really sad to see the devastation on the mothers and grandmothers faces as their child was being forcefully taken from them. But the movie wasn't all sad. Soon enough, Molly, Gracie, and Daisy escaped from the camp and began their long trek through the desert to find their way home. They walked a long time while trying to escape the tracker and trying to throw him off by covering their tracks. Also, there were many people who helped them along the way. One woman gave them food and clothes, many men gave them food, and one maid even let them stay in her home so they would have somewhere to sleep. But there were people that gave them away also. One man found the girls in his home so he called the cops so they would take them away, but luckily the girls escaped in time so Moo Doo the tracker could not find them. Another man told Gracie her mom was at the train station so out of hope Gracie left Molly and Daisy to find her mother. Sadly, Gracie was captured and Molly and Daisy never saw her again. Like I said before, it would be hard to see family be taken away once, but twice? I can’t even begin to imagine. Molly and Gracie were very sly with their hiding spots and when they ate, what they ate, and when and where they slept. And many miles later, Gracie and Molly had finally made their way back home. It was a great movie and I would recommend it to anyone. It’s a great story of hope, faith, and love.
