520    Imagine what it would be like if black settlers arrived to
       settle a continent inhabited by white natives?  In 1788, 
       the first white settlers arrived in Botany Bay to begin 
       the process of white colonisation of Australia. But in 
       Babakiueria, the roles are reversed in a delightful and 
       light-hearted look at colonisation of a different kind. 
       This satirical examination of black-white relations in 
       Australia first screened on ABC TV in 1986 to widespread 
       acclaim with both critics and audiences alike.  This is 
       the story of the fictitious land of Babakiueria, where 
       white people are the minority and must obey black laws. 
       This reverse angle probe into racial inequality in 
       Australia has developed a considerable cult following. It 
       approaches its subject with humour but is no less 
       effective for that, perhaps more so. Many valid points are
       posed for the viewer concerning racial/ethnic assumptions 
       and relations as well as the incongruities of contemporary
       Australian society.  The white Australia lifestyle is seen
       through (patronizing) Aboriginal eyes within a pseudo-
       documentary format, written by Geoffrey Atherden of Mother
       and Son and The Aunty Jack Show fame. Aboriginal actors 
       Michelle Torres and Bob Maza (Heartland) and supported by 
       a number of familiar faces from the time, including Cecily
       Polson (E-Street) and Tony Barry, who starred in major ABC
       -TV hits such as I Can Jump Puddles and his Penguin award-
       winning Scales of Justice. Babakiueria was awarded the 
       United Nations Media Peace Prize in 1987. Directed by Don 
       Featherstone. 
520    Satirical look at white culture in Australia, from an 
       Australian aboriginal viewpoint.
