Australian-born Peter Greste’s journey from foreign correspondent to political prisoner is captured in The Correspondent (2024), a biopic directed by Kriv Stenders. Based on his memoir The First Casualty, the film traces his honourable campaign for press freedom, culminating in his arrest in Egypt. A recipient of the 2015 Australian Human Rights Medal and the 2016 ANZAC Peace Prize, Greste’s work has reshaped modern journalism. Join us to reflect on Greste’s esteemed reporting, resilience, and the making of a film that tells the price we pay for speaking truth to power.

Perjalanan Peter Greste, jurnalis kelahiran Australia, dari koresponden luar negeri hingga menjadi tahanan politik diangkat dalam The Correspondent (2024), sebuah film biopik karya sutradara Kriv Stenders. Berdasarkan memoarnya The First Casualty, film ini menelusuri perjuangan mulianya demi kebebasan pers, yang berujung pada penangkapannya di Mesir. Penerima Medali Hak Asasi Manusia Australia 2015 dan Penghargaan Perdamaian ANZAC 2016 ini telah membentuk ulang wajah jurnalisme modern. Bergabunglah bersama kami untuk merefleksikan liputan ternama Greste, ketangguhannya, serta proses pembuatan film yang mengisahkan harga yang harus dibayar saat menyuarakan kebenaran kepada penguasa.
