    Extractions: Australian Independent Film Any decidedly placed idea concerning cultural difference risks informing itself with the very act it is constantly railing against: closure. And so, in titling this piece Alike/Unalike I hope to outline the various forces at play in the domain of non-Anglo films and film-makers; the differences and the similarities. For difference is the fuel of separatist philosophies, whilst similarity points the way towards reconciliation and equality. Ten Years After, Ten Years Older (Anna Kannava) My focus will be on independent film (shorts, docos, experimental film, some features, made by independents, students and 'underground' filmmakers) because, despite Australia's consciousness of multiculturalism, there is surprisingly little non-Anglo mainstream film produced. Just as women feature-film directors are scarce (Gillian Armstrong and Jane Campion being two of the few), there is a nationality imbalance as well. The main exception, Paul Cox, is more independent/art-house than mainstream, along with Sophia Turkiewicz and Rivka Hartman. Others, like John Tatoulis or Philippe Mora, are fully immersed in the mainstream, but one wonders if they have retained any inherent, special difference. Nadia Tass, for example, shortened her name, and her real-life Greek friend/inspiration-for-a-film became

Visitors expecting to see an opera in Sydney one night and meet Crocodile Dundee the next will have to re-think their grasp of geography in this huge country. It is this sheer vastness that gives Australia - and its diverse population - much of its character.

Che Guevara is displayed everywhere, printed over khaki, red and rainbow-coloured T-shirts. it invokes our deeply rooted romantic understandings of revolution: our concepts of intellectualism, political defiance, liberation and, ultimately, martyrdom. Why has this image captured the imagination of the urban professional middle classes?

    Extractions: Instruments of Cultural Policy Sectoral Policies The Commonwealth of Australia occupy the whole of the island continent of Australia, lying between the Indian and Pacific Oceans. At the total land area of 7,682,300 km2 the continent-state is composed of six States and two Territories. The States are: New South Wales, Victoria, Queensland, South Australia, Western Australia and Tasmania. There are also Northern and Australian Capital Territory. Since the Second World War, Australia has taken an important place in Asian affairs and has strengthened its political and economic ties with India, South-East Asia and Japan. Two hundred years ago the culture of Australia was essentially the culture of its Aboriginal inhabitants. The earliest steps of immigration had slowly started to change cultural customs. A turning point concerning Australian cultural values was reached in the 1930s. The European migration was an important contributor to the change that brought to Australia many people with deep interest in cultural activities from Middle-Europe. This was followed by a massive post-war influx of immigrants from Europe, making the community receptive to change and exposed to wider cultural values. In addition, technological advances in transport and communication reduced Australia's isolation from the rest of the world.

    Extractions: For good or ill, John Paul II has placed the papacy squarely back at the centre of the world stage. Given that Catholicism is the world's most culturally diverse faith, the next pope has to be someone who can bridge different cultures. One of the paradoxes of John Paul II is that while he appears very international, he is profoundly Eurocentric and monocultural. The next pope will have to be able to understand and embrace cultural attitudes other than his own. This gives Italians the edge because Italy has a long cross-cultural tradition. He will need to be more open to diversity and less confrontational than the highly centralised Wojtyla papacy. His record will be in general public accord with John Paul II but, once elected, he can make changes. Do not expect radical shifts on issues such as sexual ethics and contraception. Rather, there will be a subtle move to other emphases. What will these be?
