Modern International Dead, The

Modern International Dead, The
Every year, a tiny group of unique individuals give up a regular lifestyle to begin an extraordinary undertaking. Banding together, they are recruited to bring relief to the world's trouble spots. Delivering humanitarian or medical aid, they offer hope to those living on the edge of human tolerance . . . well, at least, that's what they signed up for. Damien Millar explores the intentions, adversities and fears of Australians on the front line. Revealing personal stories with a compassionate eye and a gallows humour, he offers a compelling, practical perspective on international aid. The Modern International Dead is 'witness theatre' at its most potent - the insiders' view on global change today, and the world we hope for tomorrow.

Yet to Ascertain the Nature of the Crime

Synopsis:
Set in Australia in late 2010, the script is structured around a compilation of statements by Indian students. Usually unseen and unheard in the public domain, they are both victims of violent attacks and witnesses to the Australian way of life through their jobs as taxi drivers, petrol station attendants and fast food workers. Verbatim statements from 25 interviews conducted by the cast and director also include comments from politicians, doctors, councilors, educators and other social commentators.
