This year’s National NAIDOC week theme is 50 Years of Deadly. This marks a milestone that is a tribute to the people who built this movement, the Elders who stood firm, the organisers who made space, the artists who turned resistance into expression, and the communities who keep showing up, year after year.

We acknowledge and celebrate the extraordinary contribution of First Nations directors, whose stories, perspectives and creative leadership continue to shape Australian screen culture.

Sophie was delighted to catch up with colleagues from the Directors Guild of Korea, with whom ASDACS established an international agreement in 2019. We look forward to working closely together to support the rights and recognition of directors in both our countries.
