The Migrant Project was a performance-based initiative from 2005-2007. 40 Sydneysiders with cultural and artistic ancestries from across the planet developed a series of shows around Sydney as a city built on a history of migration.
In 2010, The Migrant Project is now being presented as a feature film.
A lovely booklet has been prepared with all the background information to This City is a Body: The Migrant Project Film.
We recommend you download it: you can do so here.
You can also use the menu at the top to learn quickly about the essentials of the film, or spend some time exploring a few of the stories behind The Migrant Project.
For now the film will be offered to the film festival circuit. Join up to the CuriousWorks mailing list to be advised on when it will be available to the public.
You will be asked to confirm your subscription by email.
CuriousWorks would like to thank Australia Council for the Arts and Fosters Community Grants for their support at various points in the project's history.
