Pauline Clague, Founder and Artistic Director of Winda Film Festival, has curated the selection to speak to this year's theme of NAIDOC 'Keep the Fire Burning! Blak, Loud and Proud' and show the varying ways we stand up loud and proud at different stages of our lives.

- NANA - Australia / 5 mins / 2007 Writer/Director: Warwick Thornton. Nana's granddaughter thinks Nana's pretty special. She loves her Nana because she helps the old people, she's a good painter and other people love her too. Nana's got everyone under control.

When 11 year old Whalen spies a Special Forces dinghy off the jetty, the whole town gets in on the action to outdo the professionals at their own game.
