From a documentary on folk legend Joan Baez to the story of an undocumented immigrant who joins the French Foreign Legion, Carmen Gray shares ten highlights from the 2023 Berlin International Film Festival
Travis Hurley , a cop with a clandestine habit left over from his drug squad days, arrives in an isolated opal mining township to carry out a case review of the unsolved murder of an Aboriginal girl two decades before. A deep distrust of white policemen due to institutionalised racism and sky-high rates of arrest and incarceration for Aboriginal locals means the victim’s relatives are reluctant to tell this out-of-towner what they know.
“Everyone has three lives: a public life, a private life and a secret life.” We’re presented with this quote from novelist Gabriel García Marquez as this documentary on folk legend Joan Baez opens, and it’s fitting for a film that journeys into much more personal waters and internal conflict than your average portrait of a music celebrity.
