Dredging Up Crimes of the Past: Homophobia and SBS's 'Deep Water'
$7.50
DESCRIPTION
The 1970s to 1990s saw a gruesome, yet largely unspoken, episode in Australian history: not only were gay men subjected to 'poofter-bashing' and murdered with homophobic intent, but police were frequently involved in covering up or even committing the crimes. SBS's multi-platform Deep Water seeks to shed light on this dark period in our country's past. Hanna Schenkel investigates the unprecedented project's various components and the broader sociopolitics surrounding the hateful acts it confronts.
Additional keywords: hate crime, murder, homicide, prejudice, bigotry, queer, LGBT, LGBTQIA, buggery, masculinity, multimodal, cross-media, AIDS, HIV, Yael Stone, Noah Taylor, Deep Water: The Real Story, Amanda Blue, re-enactment, Rick Feneley, The Gay-hate Decades, Operation Parrabell, Out of Sight: The Untold Story of Adelaide's Gay-hate Murders, podcast.
