Sydney, July 19, 2013 (SPS)- The Australia Western Sahara Association (AWSA) organised on Thursday 18 July 2013 a public screening in Sydney of the documentary Sons of the Clouds by the famous Hollywood actor Javier Bardem

 

Bardem’s film traces the history of Western Sahara from Spanish occupation until the invasion and occupation by Morocco, and his passionate efforts to shed light on the just cause of  the Saharawi people.

 

The film was introduced by Mr. Bob Ellis, writer, journalist, film-maker and political commentator.

 

In His speech Mr. Ellis Said “This is a good movie, and a great cause, from which too long we have averted our delicate western eyes, in part because some fickle friends, the French and the Americans, have protected a tyranny that once, in the Cold War, long, long ago, was on their side”

 

The show witnessed the presence of the head of The Sahrawi delegation to Australia as well as members of The Australia Western Sahara Association (AWSA). (SPS)
