AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'The 'problem' of border security is often raised in Australian politics, but the plight of asylum seekers and those who help them is rarely depicted in narrative cinema. 'The legend maker', a film about a forger who gives refugees new futures by re-envisioning their pasts, shines a light on these topical issues and puts a human face to the demonised figure of the people smuggler.'
