Single frame. Chris Minns stands beside a massive tonne weight marked NSW POLICE being lowered by a crane. Visible sticking out from under the weight are hands, legs, a woman’s face, a keffiyeh and placards saying “NO TO GENOCIDE”, “FREE PALESTINE”, “HERZOG OUT”, “NO TO VIOLENCE” Minns says, “Thst should socially cohere them nicely.”
Cohesion.

Single frame, tree close up with koala on branch turning to us. Text: “An end to native forest logging in NSW and the establishment of the Great Kiala National Park”. Koala (with its two thumbed hand up) says “Two thumbs up.”
Koalas say yes.
