Summary: ...1990s Australian cinema provides a key site for the examination of Australian identity in multicultural terms. Drawing on the work of Ghassan Hage, Stuart Hall and Daniel Nourry, this article investigates how notions of Australian identity in a multicultural society are played out (and with) by Australian cinema in the 1990s. Particular attention is paid to Head on (Kokkinos, 1998) and Strictly ballroom (Lurhmann, 1992), as examples of different approaches to this issue. -- Taken from Abstract
