Lumen Christi College Students Inspire Change in National Film Competition

A short film created by a group of Lumen Christi College students has been selected from hundreds of entries across Australia as a top-ten finalist in national film competition Videos for Change.

Year 10 students Annalise Piotrowski, Julia Cullenward, Phillipa Keogh and Ambrosia Kleber chose to inspire change and raise awareness of women’s safety in today’s society, bringing attention to the devastating statistics of sexual assault and violence towards women.

“As country students we are so grateful that our voice is being heard,” said Ambrosia.

“On average one women per week is killed by her current or former partner and one out of five women are sexually assaulted in their lifetimes.”

“We as the next generation need to work towards creating safe environments for all women because enough is enough.”

The girls’ teacher Emma Hibbert said that she extremely proud of the group for creating the film ‘Enough is Enough’ on such an important issue facing women today.

“The girls have reminded us that we all have the right to live safely and without fear,” she said.

“I am very proud that they have conveyed this important message in such a creative and engaging way.”

“Let’s get behind our students and show them that their voices do matter and can have an impact on the social issues that affect them most!”

Winning videos will be announced at the end of November and will be broadcast on Network Ten’s ‘The Project’.
