The Rabbit Proof Fence was a great film to watch.It is based on true events.Rabbit proof fence is a very moving story about racial prejudice in 1930's Australia.

Molly, Daisy and Gracie are "half caste" young girls who are taken from their mothers and detained in Moore river settlement which seems more like a prison. The three girls escape and start an epic journey of 1500 miles on foot to find their mothers in Jigalong. They follow the rabbit proof fence which runs through the heart of western Australia.

The film highlights the awful Australian politics that took place for many years .It shows us how badly racial prejudice can be and how it caused so much misery. Despite this, Rabbit Proof Fence is an uplifting drama which personally i enjoyed. It makes you think of other peoples struggles and how lucky we are in our country, i would recommend this film to anyone who is 10 years or older as younger viewers may not understand some of the dialogue. I would rate this film 4 out of 5 because it is a great film to watch.
