(1977, 35mm, 106m) dir Peter Weir w/Richard Chamberlain, Olivia Hamnett, David Gulpilil. David Gulpilil’s incredible talent for acting and educating was the express inspiration for this film. A blunt but dreamy study of perception, colonialism, cultural awareness, and the racism of Australian whites.

For Perisphere, Cole Seidl assesses how The Last Wave fits in as a film of resistance against colonization, and MH Rowe analyzes the hazy fantasy of re-enchantment.
