Battleground Melbourne charts the fall of the World's Most Liveable City, through the eye's of those who risked everything to save it. With the arrival of Covid in early 2020, events began to unfold in Victoria much as they had unfolded elsewhere in the world, but all that soon changed and Victoria embarked on a bold and destructive mission to eradicate Covid entirely. Lockdowns were extraordinarily long and harshly enforced, the mental, economic, and social harms were astronomical, and the protests and push back from the people of Victoria was brutally repressed. This feature length documentary is presented from the perspective of the protesters and their supporters, to address many of the baseless smears and lazy attacks from Government, Police, and Media alike, and ensure that the people of Melbourne who stood up for Human Rights when it mattered most cannot simply be erased from history. Mixing interviews with eye-witnesses with news reports and with gritty real-world footage from the front lines, Battleground Melbourne is confronting, raw, heartbreaking, yet funny and hopeful too. This is the story of ordinary people doing extraordinary things in the face of terrible opposition, and standing their ground for their rights and their children's future.
