The first Reef Reels features films and discussions on the theme of intergenerational and transnational challenges to remembering and forgetting in contemporary Northern Oceania, together with short pieces by artists from the region such as Leni Leon, Craig Santos Perez, Mariquita Davis, Jack Niedenthal and the Mighty Island film collective.
