Leave your thoughts about Zach's Ceremony.
| The AustralianDavid StrattonZach's Ceremony is a beautifully made and insightful documentary study of Zachariah Doomadgee, and was filmed over a number of years, starting in 2009 when Zach was 10. |
| ArtsHubSarah WardPersonal, intimate and specific... also broad, urgent and vital, painting a portrait of what it means to be a young indigenous Australian. |
| The Sunday AgeCraig MathiesonThe film shows the public and personal pressures confronting Zach, from the historic white dispossession to everyday racism in the schoolyard ... it captures a difficult father and son dynamic that can swing from inspiration to disappointment. |
| The Age (Australia)Jake WilsonThis is all great, resonant subject matter, and Zach's Ceremony is absorbing despite its lapses into syrupy lyricism and a certain lack of shape. |
| GuardianLuke BuckmasterThe film gets better as it goes along, as if the subjects became increasingly comfortable with the presence of cameras and crew. By the end I didn't want to say goodbye to Zach, imagining a 7 Up!-style program intermittently returning to his life. |
| User ReviewChristian HThis is a film every Australian should see. It is so much more than a coming-of-age film about indigenous culture, is it deep inside into Australian aboriginal people, their history, their current social situation and their connection to culture and the land. It's an incredible documentary and must-see. |
