POP-UP SCREENING: TAKAYNA – The Heart of Lutruwita 

Wednesday, 26 February 2025
7:00pm
Theatre Royal, Castlemaine

Takayna – The Heart of Lutruwita 

We’re teaming up with the Bob Brown Foundation to bring you an urgent and inspiring documentary about one of the last wild places on Earth.

Join us at the Theatre Royal on 26 February for Takayna – The Heart of Lutruwita, a film that follows the fight to protect Australia’s largest temperate rainforest from mining and logging. Through the voices of frontline activists, Tasmanian Aboriginal community members, scientists, and musicians, this film is a call to action — and you can be part of it.
