Mayoral History Prize 20

21

Blacktown City Libraries

Share your memories about Blacktown and contribute to the knowledge of our area’s history and heritage. Total prize pool of $5,000 to be won! Entries can be written, and/or video recordings, oral recordings or photos. Entries close 31 July 2021.

For more information visit: blacktown.nsw.gov.au and search ‘Mayoral History Prize’.

Director Taika Waititi, who is of Polynesian-Jewish descent, brings his signature style of humour and pathos to an audacious coming of age tale set in Nazi Germany. A young, patriotic German boy has his world turned upside down in a crumbling war-torn Berlin and starts to question his own blind nationalism and racial beliefs. Rated M for mature themes, violence, coarse language and sex scenes.

This is a free screening for library members and is strictly limited to 40 people.
