The company offering Oscar nominees “a symbolic souvenir” of land in outback Australia says it has removed material, including the name of an Indigenous organisation, from its marketing after being accused of using it without consent.
Pieces of Australia is one of a number of brands to pay $4,000 to secure a spot in the Oscars gift bag that is unaffiliated with the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences, but sent by the company Distinctive Assets to the acting and directing nominees.
