Victoria's work has won Australia's major documentary awards including Walkley, AACTA, SPAA, and the NSW Premier's History Prize, and been nominated for two Emmys as well as Queensland and NSW premier's literary awards, AWGIE, Logie and UN Media Peace Prizes.

I'm With Her draws together all these rich threads of experience in the power and revelation of first-hand storytelling. Photo: Angelita Bonetti.
