State Of Shock
by Tony Strachan
Synopsis
Based on the true story of Alwyn Peter, a Queensland Aboriginal charged with murder in 1979; his case created legal precedent when he was released on parole after his lawyers argued that men, like Peter, were shaped and destroyed by their artificially created environments on Queensland reserves (2 acts, 3 men, 2 women).
