White Europeans that think it is right to strip a culture of its culture and assimilate them as much as possible into mainstream "white"...
it's horrible and as much as I would love to say that this "process" has ceased it is still happening today, even though it has been decades and decades after this film was made.
Rabbit-Proof Fence was moving and graphic. It depicted the pain and heartbreak of the mother's losing their daughters, the twisted emotions of the father who helped the white man in order to see his daughter physically, the overwhelming determination of Molly, Daisy, and Gracie as they walked their way home.
Molly was very inspiring and so very mature for her age. I loved how her sheer cleverness and her culture's ways of teaching had enabled her to incessantly elude capture from the country that assumed the "correct way" of living.
