A film by Graeme Ferguson.

Downfall is a feature documentary film (122 minutes) which the award-winning Australian filmmaker - John Pilger - described as “a big, raw, angry, often eloquent work in its imagery.” Pilger concluded: “The rawness is so interesting; you wield it as a weapon of the truth and persuasion, and the images you bring together, almost defiantly, are often painful to watch. Thank you for making the film and for keeping alive the hope of an Indonesia before 1965.”
