AUSTRALIA – Battleground Melbourne tells the story of how the Australian police were turned against the people they were supposed to serve, to rather became armed bullies of a tyrannical politician, Daniel Andrews, who pushed a political agenda that disregarded democratic principals and basic human rights.
Victoria Police went on an 18 month rampage of repression, unlawful arrests, and widespread intimidation that started during 2020, with the purpose to silence the people who protested the abuse of their human rights during the Covid crisis. During Covid lockdowns across the world, people were amazed at the levels that Western Governments Abused their powers and ignored basic human rights and the constitutions of their countries.
This is what happens when law enforcement is weaponised by a politician to serve political goals instead of the law, and when police officials ignore their oath of office to upheld the law and the constitution of their countries.
Battleground Melbourne is the people’s reply to the lies, half truths, slurs, and lazy attacks that they had to endure for almost 2 years. This is the story of ordinary people doing extraordinary things and taking extreme risks to stand for they believe in when a government abuse its powers.
Battleground Melbourne was directed by Topher Field. You can watch other productions by Topher Field and follow him via the links below the video.
