'Balibo' film has real-life impact
Not only has the movie "Balibo" been getting excellent reviews, it would appear that the film has increased public awareness enough to spur the Australian government into finally taking action towards possibly achieving some justice for the Balibo 5 and their families:

While it is still a long shot that those identified as being directly responsible for the murders of the Balibo 5 will ever actually be brought to trial, at least the families no longer have to suffer the indignity of their own Australian government's refusal to even acknowledge the murder of their loved ones in the first place.
It must be very gratifying for "Balibo" director Robert Connolly, Anthony LaPaglia, Jill Jolliffe (whose book "Cover-Up" is the basis for the movie), and the rest of the cast & crew of "Balibo" to know that their film has had such a positive, real-life impact.
