FREE INDIGENOUS SHORT FILM NIGHT Manly, Warringah and Pittwater’s Aboriginal Support Group will be hosting a free indigenous short film night at the Nelson Heather Centre, North Narrabeen on Monday 4 May at 7.30pm   The film night will be presented by Gillian Moody, who grew up in Avalon and is a descendant of the Wadi-Wadi people of Jervis Bay.   Studying at the Australian Film Television and Radio School, Ms Moody went on to spend 10 years in SBS’s Indigenous Media Unit working on programs such as Living Black.   While at SBS, Gillian Moody worked on the program Corroboree 2000 – A walk across the bridge. “I felt happy that this special day had come for our country and that true acknowledgement was before us,” she said.   Ms Moody now helps to develop and support many talented Indigenous filmmakers through her role with Screen Australia.   She will discuss her experiences from her works and will also present some short indigenous films.   The event will be held in the Angophora Room of the Nelson Heather Centre which is located on the corner of Jackson and Pittwater Roads.   For further details please contact Lizzie on 9918 2594 or Vanessa on 9905 8473 or visit www.asgmwp.net <http://www.asgmwp.net/> Media contact:          Community Relations, Pittwater Council Ph: 9970 1172 or 9970 1119
