CONVOY
2019 | 35 min | AUSTRALIA
Directed by: Matthew Newton

Followed by panel discussion with Bob Brown and Director Matthew Newton

Go behind the news headlines and follow former Greens leader Bob Brown and a passionate collective of concerned citizens as they journey 3500km across Australia with the hope of preventing the development of the potentially climate-destroying Adani Carmichael coal mine.

Convoy is an intimate look at what it takes to undertake a major environmental act of defiance. 

It follows former Greens leader Bob Brown, and the many concerned Australians that join him as he sets out on an epic road trip from Tasmania to the Galilee Basin in Far North Queensland.

We join Bob and the protestors travelling a tremendous distance of more than 3500 kilometres. Their goal – to stop the development of the Adani Carmichael coal mine. 

A film about the power of people and peaceful protest. It gives a voice to the public and works to empower individuals to stand up and make a difference.  

Convoy is a hopeful documentary that invites its viewers to join the cause and become a part of a community that is working toward a better future for the generations to come and a portrait of one of the most important climate battles of our generation.
