Clara Law's LETTERS TO ALI is at once a personal, a humanistic and a political film that echoes Australia's growing public concern over the treatment of refugees, especially children, in Australian detention centres. The documentary chronicles one exceptional "average" Australian family the Kerbi/Silbersteins, who decide to help on a small level by writing to Ali - a 15 year-old Afghan boy detained at Port Hedland and unaccompanied by any relatives. This letter would prove to be the catalyst for a three-year on-going battle with Australian authorities to get Ali, then a minor, out of detention.
