Griffith Celebrates Refugee Week With a Filming Of Cast From The Storm

Rural Australians for Refugees (RAR) Griffith has arranged a screening of Cast from the Story at Griffith Regional Theatre on Tuesday, June 18.

It is a tender story about a group of teenage refugees who share their extraordinary stories when they join Treehouse Theatre, an after-school theatre group.

This uplifting documentary is a coming of age story that shares the reality of what it means to be a teenager and a displaced person.

It is a story of what comes after, and what it means to remake your home.

At the end of the screening, each of the three teens will have a special piece shown about them.

This year is the fifth film screening arranged by RAR Griffith to commemorate Refugee Week.

The screening will also form part of a special Griffith City Council Citizenship Ceremony from 4:30 pm.

The film’s run time is one hour, 20 minutes plus a special feature session and tickets cost $15 each.

Ticket includes free pizza upon arrival and the bar will be open from 5:30 pm, and can be purchased online through the Griffith Regional Theatre website.

There will be a raffle on the night with membership to the Griffith RAR available.

EFTPOS facilities will be available for all needs on the evening.
