Then the Wind Changed

Aroview: When a firestorm of 'cyclonic fury' swept through Victoria in 2009, Australia was rocked by its worst natural disaster in recorded history. Documenting from the beginning, filmmaker Celeste Geer interweaves her own family’s story with those of her neighbours as they struggle to rebuild their small community in the years following the horrific fires. A raw and intimate testament to the resilience of those who survived, it also questions the wisdom in our continual attempts to dominate our environment.
