The fight against environmental destruction takes place in a wide range of spaces, from boardrooms to blockade camps, from the lush East Gippsland forests to the golden Ningaloo Reef. The Advocates is a powerful documentary that tells the inside story of nine extraordinary women within the Australian environmental movement and the behind-the-scenes efforts that have helped power advocacy across the country. These advocates have been at the forefront of the fight for over fifty years, holding corporations accountable, cleaning up toxic waste in their own backyards, and restoring biodiversity to our forests.
While they may not always be the frontlines of the fight or the front pages of the news, their relentless commitment to making change is both moving and inspiring. In often unseen and unacknowledged ways, these women have educated, agitated, and pioneered new approaches to the many crises in the Australian environment. Told through richly detailed interviews, these stories get to the heart of why these women have dedicated their lives to environmental causes and the different ways they have persevered.
The Advocates shines a light on the tireless commitment of these nine women to change, and what it means to be an Australian environmental advocate. These stories will inspire the next generation to find a place in that vital fight.
