You are invited to a screening by Cinema des Antipodes of 'I Am Eleven' in the presence of the director Genevieve Baileyet and producer Henrik Nordstrom at the Australian Embassy.
'I Am Eleven' is a globe-spanning portrait of humanity at a crucial age - no longer children, not quite adults, preparing to inherit a world changing as quickly and dramatically as they are. This documentary focuses on a series of eleven-year-olds from 15 countries, each speaking in their own words and revealing the private obsessions and public concerns that animate their lives. It is simultaneously an epic survey of the similarities and distinctions between cultures and an intimate account of these young personalities finding their way in the world today...

Nancy Wake was highly decorated for her actions during the War and before she died in 2011 she expressed her wish that her ashes be scattered in Montlucon. On Sunday morning, several civilian and military French, English and Australian paid ​their last respects to this courageous woman.
