KiwiFM Audio: Wallace Chapman & Selwyn Manning – Strange Birds In Paradise An Essential Piece In The West Papua Story

  • KiwiFM Audio: Wallace Chapman and Scoop's Selwyn Manning discuss how a documentary film by Australia's Charlie Hill-Smith, Strange Birds In Paradise, has screened at the New Zealand International Film Festival. The documentary is proving to be an essential piece in a story of understanding the plight of West Papua's peoples who seek freedom from Indonesia's occupation, oppression, and censors. Indonesia bans journalists and independent observers from traveling in the Melanesian island. This is an essential account too of West Papua's culture and is a document of hope.
