Here Out West ( Study Guide)

$5.00
DESCRIPTION
Nancy visits her daughter in hospital who has just given birth. Tagging along is her 8- year-old Lebanese neighbour, Amirah, who she is babysitting. It is a bittersweet meeting for Nancy, as her new grandchild is about to be taken away, her mother being deemed unfit by the authorities to keep her. In an act of desperation, Nancy makes the decision to steal the baby, fleeing from the hospital with Amirah by her side. Not long after their audacious escape, a pedestrian is involved in a hit and run. Three young men from the neighbourhood step in to help, unsure if he'll survive the night. Across eight distinct yet interconnected stories, Nancy’s spontaneous flight sets off a chain of events that brings together complete strangers over the course of one dramatic day. Curriculum Links: This study guide to accompany Here Out West has been written for secondary students in Years 10 – 12 in the Australian Curriculum Learning Areas of Civics and Citizenship, English, History and Media and the Australian Curriculum General Capability: Intercultural Understanding. For LOTE teachers, there is the opportunity to view and discuss particular stories and to explore how the languages and cultures portrayed in these stories are important to the linguistic and cultural diversity of Australia.
