People might wanna support then by purchasing a copy though.

> Hey there  everyone –
>
> Following the ongoing success of ‘Holiday Camp – how is your 
> liberation bound up with mine’ [AUS 2002 – still screening around the 
> world], we have produced another anti-racist film, which we would like 
> to present to you:
>
> First Fleet Back - Uncle Kevin vs the Queen
>
> Vote now to de-colonize Australia!
> This satirical hybrid documentary catapults us into an alternate 
> Australian reality and follows Arabunna Elder Kevin Buzzacott’s 
> amazing struggle for self-determination and against racism - before he 
> became the ‘Minister for Invasion Affairs’! Who is the man who shook 
> the foundations of this former colony?
> Be alert & alarmed – it’s your chance to ‘vote them off on the First 
> Fleet Back’!
>
> Following the tradition of ‘Babakiueria’ (1986, Aus), this hybrid 
> documentary uses a satirical reversed power situation, which 
> emphasizes Kevin Buzzacott’s authority in real life. Hypothetical 
> scenarios are interwoven with visually arresting examples of the 
> controversial strategies Kevin Buzzacott employs to challenge the 
> perception of ‘Australian reality’ and post-colonial racism worldwide.
> His beautiful sense of humour and his bold and compelling actions will 
> hook hearts and minds alike.  In a fresh and quirky way, First Fleet 
> Back  offers an unusual insight into the past to build our future 
> together.

> We are now distributing the film on DVD – so if you’d like a copy or 
> are interested to organize a screening, let us know and please pass 
> this email on – thanx! Part of the proceeds from this DVD will go 
> towards Arabunna Elder Kevin Buzzacott’s ongoing Genocide court case.
>
> The DVD [PAL all region] cost AU$25 [AU$30 soli price] [organizations 
> AU$50] – and we have also a press kit + posters available for further 
> publications attached.
