Many had escaped from violent and dysfunctional families only to face years of deprivation and humiliation, degraded day-after-day in a regimen designed to break their spirit.[/i] [/color] [img]https://boltimg.com/images/b012n.jpg[/img] [color=#000000][b]This the story of Westbrook, a notorious hell-hole at Toowoomba, Queensland, where boys were beaten till they bled, dragged at night from their dormitory beds to be raped by guards and older inmates; the screams of the victims echoing over the other boys lying terrified and weeping. When a boy managed to report the abuse to authorities he was disbelieved and beaten even more harshly. The few who managed to get away were quickly re-captured and put into the horrifying confinement of a terrible cage called The Compound. Through re-enactments and interviews with the survivors, Westbrook exposes the criminal behaviour of supervisors with unrestricted power over all aspects of the boys llives. Westbrook is a documentary all Australians must see. It reveals a legacy of violence and misery that continues to this day; a trail of homelessness, unemployment, substance abuse, mental illness and emotional breakdown.

It was not the first time the infamous prison was the subject of documentary. Former inmate Al Fletcher wrote Brutal: Surviving Westbrook Boys Home and William "Billy" Stokes also wrote about his harrowing experiences in Westbrook: Surviving Australia's Most Sadistic Reformatory. "The Westbrook story makes Lord of Flies seem like a Sunday school picnic," Mr Stokes said. Both of the authors and former inmates were interviewed by Westbrook's producer Graham McNeice for the documentary. Mr McNeice travelled around the country to talk to the institution's former residents, after he first heard about Westbrook from an old friend. " He knew I produced a lot of shows on the crime and investigation channel and started chatting about a place called Westbrook," Mr McNeice said. "When he told me, I was quite horrified. "I met with the former boys and some of them were very determined to try and get this out into the open. I discussed it with Foxtel and they commissioned the project." Mr McNeice said many of those he spoke to had been scarred for life by their experiences in Westbrook. "They can't get rid of the dreadful things inflicted upon them, or what they saw," he said. "So many people couldn't cope with telling their story. S ome of them only told their families in recent years." Weaving archival footage with the knowledge of anthropologist Dr Adele Chynoweth, the docudrama offers an insight in to a very different - and shocking - time in Australia's past. In July, 2014, the current Royal Commission into Institutional Responses to Child Sexual Abuse handed down its first report, with more reports to come. Westbrook took more than a year to produce.[/b] [img]https://boltimg.com/images/b0R5k.gif[/img] [b] History of name changes 1900 - Starts life as Westbrook Reformatory for Boys 1919 - Name changed to the Farm Home for Boys 1966 - Renamed Westbrook Training Centre 1987 - Becomes Westbrook Youth Centre 1993 - Renamed Westbrook Youth Detention Centre 1994 - Transformed into Darling Downs Correctional Centre 2012 - Closed and put on the market[/b][/center] Format : AVI at 1 547 Kbps Length : 1.12 GiB for 1h 43mn 13s 800ms Video #0 : MPEG-4 Visual at 1 403 Kbps Aspect : 720 x 408 (1.765) at 25.000 fps Audio #0 : MPEG Audio at 128 Kbps Infos : 2 channels, 48.0 KHz[/color] [center][color=red] FB4C9EEBE07213229615E0904C463E07721841FE[/color][/center]
