''Black Chicks Talking'' is an arts project by Australian actress Leah Purcell featuring a 2001 documentary film, a 2002 book, a stage production and an art exhibition. The film is co-directed by Brendan Fletcher and features Indigenous Australian women including Purcell, actress Deborah Mailman and politician Kathryn Hay. Following the book and film, Purcell wrote a fictionalised dramatisation under the same title.〔 〕 ==Book== Purcell got the idea for a book featuring interviews of Indigenous Australian women following the success of her semi-autobiographical play ''Box the Pony''.〔 〕 After seeing the play someone suggested that Purcell find other Indigenous women to tell their stories.〔 Purcell sought out nine women who personally inspired her, some professional, some not.〔 The interviewees included politician and former Miss Australia Kathryn Hay, actress Deborah Mailman, netball player Sharon Finnan, United Nations youth delegate Tammy Williams, Rosanna Angus and Cilla Malone.〔〔 〕 To initiate discussion, Purcell asked each woman the question "Out of the five senses, which one do you relate to and what is your first pleasurable memory of that sense?"〔 Her partner Bain Stewart gave her the idea of filming the interviews and using them as the basis for a documentary.〔 Further interviews were conducted over the telephone, particularly when participants felt uncomfortable opening up on-camera.〔 The interviews explored the topics of identity, family and culture in relation to Indigenous Australian women.〔 〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Black Chicks Talking」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
