Back to Bilo

A Belloo Production
A remarkable true story of resilience, belonging and the power of community.

Priya and Nades left war-torn Sri Lanka and found each other in regional Queensland. The Biloela community welcomed them with open arms, until four years later a knock at the door changed everything. In a pre-dawn raid, they were taken from their home.

Their story could have ended there. Instead, a determined group of Biloela women refused to let them disappear, standing alongside the young family and galvanising thousands of ordinary Australians to demand their return to Bilo.

Following a sold-out season in Brisbane and multiple award nominations, Back to Bilo comes to Darwin with a dynamic combination of original music, stunning projection and deeply human storytelling.
