WRECKAGE | A Charity Screening and Q&A
Hosted by Phoenix Support and Advocacy Service
Following its sold-out screening at the WA Made Film Festival, Phoenix Support and Advocacy Service is proud to host a special one-night-only charity screening of Wreckage – a powerful, independently produced WA film exploring the realities of domestic violence and interpersonal harm.
Described by audiences as confronting, important, and necessary, Wreckage tells the story of a young woman who escapes one controlling relationship only to find herself trapped in another. It is a film that speaks honestly to experiences that too many people in our community know firsthand.
This is not just a screening, it is a conversation. Following the film, a panel of filmmakers and specialist DV/FV practitioners will come together for a 45-minute Q&A, offering audiences a rare opportunity to engage directly with the people who made the film and the people doing this work in our community every day.
The evening will be opened with a welcome address from WA Minister Simone McGurk, and hosted by Louise Lamont, CEO of Phoenix Support and Advocacy Service.
