#1 I like Downer. Maybe he aint a rocket scientist, but he can cut through the PC BS and make good decisions.

The Australian films in question are:

The President versus David Hicks, which exposes the illegal detention of Australian citizen David Hicks in Guantánamo Bay;

Garuda’s Deadly Upgrade, about the murder of Indonesian human rights campaigner Munir Said Thalib;

Dhakiyarr versus the King, a documentary on the murder trial and subsequent disappearance of Aboriginal leader Dhakiyarr Wirrpanda over 70 years ago; and

We Have Decided Not To Die, an 11-minute short about three individuals who escape death in a number of different and unusual ways. Indonesian censors had cleared all four films for the festival.
