The We Do Tube Too FarmHello, and welcome to some of the You Tube trailers, or links to trailers or movies we want to point you to or introduce you to. While it's unlikely that you'll be able to watch many movies directly from our website, because they eat lots of resources, you will be able to find a growing number of direct links to them. After all, these days www.myspace.com, the place where You Tube lives, is owned by our own Rupert Murdoch, and who said we weren't patriotic? So, We Tube Too these days! Tubes on this pageThe movies below are embedded on this page, or linked to a pop-up window that opens when you click the links. For the pop-up windows to work properly, you may need to adjust the settings on your computer: allow Javascripts and allow pop-up windows on this page or on our website.

The stories of the people they met behind the razor wire surprised, moved and challenged them. We Will Be Remembered For This documents their journey. It is a film for everyone. It is a clear, rational and nonpoliticised look at the human issues of Australia's mandatory immigration detention policy. This film poses the essential questions surrounding Australia's refugee policy. Who are the people behind the fences? How did they come to be there? What are the psychological and legal battles they now face? How much do average Australians know about this policy, and if they knew the truth, would they want it to change? Movie preview
